We are under siege by the cicadas! As such, the kids and I took the dogs into the yard to explore and find some of the little buggers. Earlier in the day, my honey sizzled up a dozen or so and he and Thurston ate them. Gross. He said they tasted as great as they sound like they’d taste. Apparently Thurston wanted more. (Not apparently, he video-ed, and it happened.) Boys will be boys.

This face…OH MY GOD

Gross. Coming out of the nymph shell. Yuck.
