Alien Caterpillar

[Mona Lisa]

We saw this bugger while hiking on Mackinac Island, Michigan. I've seen the Cecropia moth in Pennsylvania...... but never a cool caterpillar like this!

Ashleen....that was good...didn't see that one coming

Just Mona...meant to tell you;

Those green buggers are some good eating. In a small saucepan saute a crushed clove of garlic in 1 tablespoon of butter, add 1 cup of burgandy wine, 2 spinach leaves, 1 dill pickle slice, a pinch of cayenne pepper, 1 tablespoon of heavy cream, salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil; take the fella and drop him in and boil until he floats, Remove quickly so the skin doesn't toughen.

Slice in half and place on a piece of melba toast that has 1 tablespoon of peanut butter and some dried cranberries on top.

Enjoy!

Guess you'll miss out on the smoked ribs, smoked turkey breast, home-made macaroni salad, fresh baked bread and, since you are not coming to eat I won't make home-made Gobs for desert! ....just Nanner pudding! :P

BTW....green worms on melba toast won't be served cause I haven't seen any around here this year
