Oh, yes, they chopped its head off immediately*. It was roadkill--badly shattered, poor thing. The eggs were inside her--I don't know where--and had leathery, soft shells. I wish she had had a chance to get them laid somewhere.
*But the legs continued to twitch, even after being severed from the body--ew, ew, ew!!!

I prepared more strawberries this evening over at my mother-in-law's. She prefers powdered sugar in them, and told me where I could find it. This time I did a taste test first!

Right on! Too many things look like powdered sugar!
But were it something else we could have had a laugh.

The lesion wasn't wasted on you then Jackie.

I once swallowed yellow dish-washing liquid because;

1) I used a straw into the bottle (instead of pouring it into a glass to drink)

and

2) someone decanted the dish-washing liquid into the bottle and stupidly put it in the fridge, where I found it and thinking it was Apple & Orange Juice..... proceeded to drink it!

It made me violently ill and even now I only buy the green variety....never the yellow washing up liquid. I get queasy just thinking about it.

Always label things you put in different containers.

Wise advice. And keep out of the reach of children, not
under the kitchen sink.
