part of this nutricioius breakfast
This image has greeted me the last couple mornings when I've entered my kitchen. (And yes, I threw the first one out).
It takes me back to a childhood memory sometime in the '70s. My family went on a two week vacation to California. When we got back to our home in St. Pete we found this cup with some sort of juice in it that had ten or twelve drowned (or semi-drowned cockroaches) floating in it.
Instead of being totally horrified, my dad was kind of excited that he may have discovered some incredible new cockroach trap.
The next time we took a trip my dad set out a cup of juice in the same spot, eager to see how many cockroaches he would trap.
Unfortunately, this time, there were no cockroaches floating in the water when we came back.
Now thirty years later, I feel like calling my Dad and telling him that his invention is a success.
You were a visionary!
