Gee, how can you say that your hometown area doesn't usually even get warmish until Julyish? LOL That pretty much pegs the weather in this area of the state too. Only someone from the mining regions of the state can appreciate the beauty the mountains here still hold, even after many of them have virtually been ripped to shreds by strippings and such. Come what may, I still love good old PA! Just stopping by to thank you for visiting and commenting too! Gee, how can you say that your hometown area doesn’t usually even get warmish until Julyish?

Just wondering, though, do I actually know you in real life by chance?<br/><br/>Blame, hah! Same thing here...snails are food first, and cute little creatures second. Except when I have my camera! And you're welcome for the Circus Peanuts back-up. Anytime! Thanks for the encouraging words on the book as well. Slow and steady, right?<br/><br/>Bec, hope you're enjoying your weather, and again, it's good to see you back :)<br/><br/>Jane, I don't think I realized you were in Philly. I need to read things closer, I think ;)<br/><br/>Anyway, for those wishing to check out Jane's new food blog (and a great idea for pesto), go <a HREF="http://sundayinthekitchen.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">here</a>!

I see that snail & immediately think of food. Or rather I think that they'll try to convince me it's food and...that I should help prepare it.<br/><br/>It's a sad day. No wonder I turned to circus peanuts. Thanks for your support on that one, by the way.<br/><br/>Keep writing your book. I want to read it. OK, see how my French in-laws have warped me.

It’s a sad day. No wonder I turned to circus peanuts. Thanks for your support on that one, by the way.

Keep writing your book. I want to read it.

You really know how to capture the shot. Everything looks so green and lush! What a great time of year. Glad you are back up and running. Once again, great pictures.

Deleted my own comment!<br/><br/>TOG, again, I wasn't as close to that snail as it looks. In fact, the following day, I discovered one in my kitchen, head out and all, about half the size of a penny. I refused to pick it up and put it outside (if it's in its shell, I can do it though). I'm not a huge fan of eating snails anyway. Good luck conquering the little buggers in your garden.<br/><br/>Carole, wow, 92 years old! Complimenti a Papà! They say there are literally hundreds of different words for snails in southern Italy, but what P calls a snail is "lambehru" with the stress on the second syllable (lam-BEAR-ooh). Babbaluci sounds much cuter ;) Oops. Deleted my own comment!

This is the first year I've seen snails in my garden, and ... they're freaking me out! (It's like the time Jerry found the hair in his Farina. He was little but he could run really fast.) I mean, I know they're little and cute and are delicious cooked with garlic and butter, but, hello? They're terrifying. I don't know why. I was with you right up until the snail.

Can we blame this on global warming too?<br/><br/>Christine, we've definitely had our share of rain (yesterday and today are just two examples), but there were also some truly glorious days mixed in.
