That's a whole lotta growing in just a decade or so.
And they always return to the very same beach they were born later in life to lay their eggs no matter how many thousands of kms they are away from it.
With a very special thank you to Tina: Is hammer already absolute, how much some people verändern...ICH hope is never so I will be! And if, then I hope that I would then have wen in my environment who joins me in the A....
The first time I had turtle soup was on an airplane, believe it or not. This had to be about 40 years ago when the airline routinely served full meals on flights. I believe it was Eastern Airlines at the time. They even provided a recipe card for the soup. I was so impressed with it, I tried to make it. That's another story.
I've also had escargot, which is simply divine, too. I had that at a French restaurant in Georgetown (in Washington, DC). I remember seeing Henry Kissinger there with his wife, who strangely resembled a horse.
I will admit I can eat some weird stuff and love it: fish roe in German and Japanese food, German blood sausages, New Zealand's ostrich meat, Floridian battered & fried alligator tenders with dip---butthere are a few foods I just can't ***k with:
escargot (it's the aesthetic that turns me off, they're probably good, but they look ugly )
horse steaks (tho' I did see obscenely priced packages of it in the fancy- frou frou mall recently)
I used to be a crazy for quail when I was young, but fowl over here in Germany most of the time is so full of feathers which you must remove yourself---one day maybe 10 years ago I purchased some, and they looked to similar to humans, and the freaking feathers stuck in them after cooking were too much like human hair, I was too through and haven't touched a quail since----though I can get down with eating quail eggs as a fancy h'ors douuvre. But turtles, something about their legs in some species are too cute and remind me of fat, cuddly human baby legs, and frog legs remind me of human supermodel legs. So I can't go there.... but it's alright...I already know.... I'm mental.
Frog legs are wonderful. They have the same texture as chicken wings, but taste like fish.
Escargot is amazing, too - especially prepared the French way with garlic, butter, and lemon, and served with croutons for sopping up the butter.
Girl you are just too cosmopolitan for my ass
Seriously though, I remember my dad used to eat frogs legs when I was really small...and he was always so happy abut it. In my child's imagination all I could see were the legs of my Barbie, Darcie, Candi, & Marie Osmond dolls battered and dipped and was traumatized for life.

Now I would join you for clams.... but these guys make it look gross.
I love me some good clams.
Fried, stuffed/baked or (my fav so far) served with linguini in a light oil/sauce.
I haven't had clams in years Okay, now that I will come over for, help y'all eat up all the food and will even bring the crusty bread for sopping up the sauce!
Now we just need somebody to bring the wine to paintedlady's and we have a party!
