fried caterpillars

Seeing as how I am between jobs and we are not travelling anywhere until Tuesday, there has been time for me to catch up on web-based research of Burkina Faso. Which leads me to a very educational travel site where people posted a lot of Burkina pictures. I happened upon some fried caterpillars, and it appears that they are quite the dish in Bobo. I am almost ashamed to say, as a vegetarian, that they looked kinda tasty. I eat fish and am in no way a strict vegetarian, but I wonder if caterpillars and the rest of the bug world will interest my buds. (taste buds, that is). Jon and I are currently trying to gather all the things we will bring to Africa with us and we just ordered a Solio. Oh , and we also ordered Chacos. It is thrilling for me to consider that Jon will retire the Crocs periodically and sport the Chacos. Even better would be if he loved the new sandals enough to abandon the Crocs forever. I don't want to get ahead of myself, but I do believe it would be a big step for him. My fingers are crossed! I have put the link to the new site I found up. Enjoy!
