Default Lovebugs - They're Baaack

If anyone wants to know what's wrong with the Villages (or any where in Florida) in May or Sept. it would be the Lovebugs.

Fumar, especially when scraped off the windshield, helps to tenderize 'em

I haven't seen one of the little buggers yet. I won't miss them if I don't see them, either. (I can dream, right?)

I prefer them seasoned with sea salt and then sun dried. Serve only as an appetizer to a good buffalo steak (available locally, they have been dry aged for abut 3 months now).

Hey Russ, wasn't it you who once suggested the buffalo were a dead topic? ;D

Maybe I shouldn't stir the waters. The hoof prints are barely dry.
