The Down Side of Up
So the other night Kevin and I were having the age old debate about what to have for dinner. Considering my aversion to chicken this is actually a hard
thing to come up with. We FINALLY settled on homemade nachos and got out the stuff to start making it, but we had one big problem, the ground beef was still frozen.

I understand why you refused to eat that meat. This is quite the experience. It reminds me of Mexico. Roaches are very scary to me for some reason though so please don't send them to my house. I don't miss them one bit!
Oh. Melanie over-exaggerates a TON! We do not see roaches that often. Just little ones, once in a while.
And the roach does not look exactly like that. I don't remember the roach having the butt part like the one in the picture. So just so you know.
thanks for the clarification... I still wouldn't eat it! :)
Sigh. We're usually pretty roachless ourselves, but I've found SEVERAL around the house in the past WEEK. I think it's time for us to move.
HI
EVERYONE HAS ROACHES BUT USUALLY THEY ARE NICE ENOUGH TO ONLY COME OUT AT NIGHT AND WE DON'T SEE THEM. YOURS ARE PRETTY BRAVE.
YOU ARE JUST STARTING TO ACCUMULATE. JUST WAIT TILL YOU SEE HOW MUCH STUFF LITTLE BABIES REQUIRE
LOVE

We had roaches in OK and NM and hated them. We'd spray and they'd to visit the neighbor's house until they got tired of them and sprayed and then back they'd come again! Don't miss them at all! By the way I love your blog. Jason has one too. And Misti and Eric have a Dodge site with pics
i forgot you had a blog... even the idea of roaches is disgusting - i couldn't focus in relief society yesterday because of the ants on the wall...let alone eat after seeing a roach...lovely images -
that is so gross. I was afraid you were going to say you ate it anyway! Although I think I would have packed up and moved as well!
