The ...Oooh, those gypsy moths are so cool looking. The image of caterpillars crawling over others, though, is creepy. <br /><br />The TALU is a great idea. I am not good at looking through the archives of other blogs either, so it's fun to catch a glimpse of their favorites each week. Plus, I get to meet new friends, too. I always like doing that. BTW, I can't find that powdered fennel you used in the pork recipe I was going to try. Need to go back to your archives to find a different recipe.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209807996463889703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329563580023354380.post-60375240285769782512013-02-05T16:06:58.810-05:002013-02-05T16:06:58.810-05:00I had a hard time writing it.

I remember the year the neighborhood I grew up in (in MA) was overrun by Gypsy Moth Caterpillars. It was horrifying!! Everywhere you looked there were trees with vaseline covered bands of aluminum foil around them to stop the caterpillars from climbing, but once enough of them got stuck in the vaseline, others would just climb over them. You couldn't go out without an umbrella!<br /><br />As gross as this story (and my memory) are, I'm digging the whole #TALU concept. I have started following a handful of new blogs as a result, and although I'm pretty good about keeping up on new posts as I see them in my Google Reader feed, I don't normally go back and read someone's older posts, so the #TALU is a good way of "looking back" at someone new. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1329563580023354380.post-66963857891527389202013-02-05T14:30:28.384-05:002013-02-05T14:30:28.384-05:00Wooooooo.

As I scrolled down to finish reading, I held my hand up to shield the spider. I didn't get a good look. I just know it was green. I didn't want to see any hair! YUCK. OMG, I would have had to be committed somewhere. Probably not really. But Christopher would have been late for school EVERY DAY for sure. Kenya G.
