Fight the East Coast Cicada Onslaught With Chianti... →
The Eastern seaboard is under siege by a billion-bug swarm of cicadas, an entomological Red Dawn. This aggression will not stand! But why simply goosh them underfoot when you can make these insectoid invaders into a meal?
Who wants to eat cicadas with me this summer?

I got to sleep for 9 hours.
youth-and-beauty-brigade:
I am eating pizza and watching youtube and I am not sorry. I also am not sorry about the previous run on sentence.
I am not sorry that being a stereotypical American teenager is my form of weekend relaxation.
Enjoy every minute of it. Please.

Hi, my name is Allyson. And I like puns.
I tried to catch some Fog. I mist.
I’m reading a book about anti-gravity. I can’t put it down.
I did a theatrical performance about puns. It was a play on words.

Broken pencils are pointless.

Neshaminy (a particular soil series)
podzolic (a soil that develops in temperate to cold moist climates under coniferous or heath vegetation)
friable (easily crumbled)
fluvaquent (an alluvial soil)
aeolian (formed from wind activity)
I just think they’re fun to say.

Posts may be a bit slow in the coming days as I am preparing for my committee meeting that will essentially decide whether or not I get to continue on with my Master’s project. So, wish me luck and I’ll see you all soon!
May the odds be ever in your favor!
Committee meetings are nerve wracking, but I’m sure you’ll do great.
