unfortunatly, no. we forgot the camera.

mine looked way fancier though!

and towards the end of the meal, the visiting chef from Australia came out and greeted us and asked me: "How do you find the bugs?"

and I replied: "I find them delicious."

he nodded, smiled, said "excellent." and then walked over to the next table while i turned to my GF and said "I JUST LOOK AT MY PLATE AND THERE THEY ARE- THATS HOW I FIND THEM!"

i would probably not be able to stop laughing @ kookaburras if i lived near them

example (crüt), Monday, 18 August 2014 04:31 (nine years ago) link

i don't think you could either, i always do when they show up. we get them outside our window sometimes and you can get up quite close them and they don't mind at all, they are a good blend of affability and boldness.
