Ugh, they're the 747's of roaches (but for you, I guess I should say 787's!). We have them here too, and unfortunately they fly like 747's too.
I swear that one was actually divebombing me once after I dared give him a little shot of Raid.
Ugh. Palmettos are flying roaches???! I had two after me in southern Mexico one time. I've never screamed so loudly in my life. They were as big as the palm of my hand and made funny noises when they flew. So gross.
Hmmmm, are you sure you weren't, what's pamella's word, gorgeing that champagne WHILE you were making them, Pauillac? That could account for a certain degree of wonkiness.
Wonky or not (and they look pretty prefect to me), I'll bet they're delicious. Got any left?
Thank you! I haven't taken them to work so will gladly pass them out. There's no champagne left, though. I think the thing I like about cooking is not cooking, but the imbibing of wine while I'm making something.

Didn't someone always say the cook should have a glass of wine in hand at all times?
Bubbles helps you think? 
Yes, I think they're in the "roach family" and they're truly horrible. The first time I saw one, I was in my kitchen talking to my mother on the phone, and one appeared from under the frig.
I screamed so loudly that my mother thought I was being attacked, and when I told her why I was screaming, she said, "oh for heavens sake, just put a glass over it if you don't want to step on it" (step on it? Mom you don't understand what I'm dealing with here!
)She also didn't understand that it took a mixing bowl to trap that darn thing. She was used to northern bugs.

LOL! When we arrived at my college in FL, I walked into the dorms and in the shower was a dead palmetto the length of my hand. I turned around and told Momma Pugs we're going back to Chicago
I feel it's going by so fast too...but we still have time!
Mia, I will be happy to send you more summer if you run short.

OH MY GOD, those things FLY?? I had no idea! Note to self - stay away from Florida and Atlanta so as to avoid f)(*&ing flying bugs!

Wait, Pugsy, you're from CHICAGO??? No way!
Born and raised. North shore area, into suburbs with a quick stint just over the boarder in WI Momma Pugs is now just over the boarder
Momma Pugs is now just over the boarder
PS.......I lived in Park Ridge for 11 years. I love Chicago!!
Momma Pugs is now just over the boarder
How did I not know this? Or did I know this and my sieve-like brain forgot it? I was born in the city, too, but raised in DuPage County, and still live there. Perhaps you'll be coming to visit Momma Pugs at some point?
