Only the baby ones. :lol: :lol: :lol:

The big ones go in soup. My redneck step-dad wanted to make turtle soup for Thanksgiving one year out of this huge-ass turtle that wandered into the garden til I cried and he set him loose.

 

[givemfitz]

And did it run away? :lol:

 

[dascoot]

It.. slowly meandered away, yes.

Is that a regular thing in Florida, turtles walking around?

 

[dascoot]

I'm in a town setting so there's not a lot of wildlife running around, but out in the bayous and wetlands you see a lot of em.

But there is this one that lives in an empty lot by my apartment and every time I walk by he's out chillin in the sun, so I try and sneak up on him with my camera and he hightails it for his hole.

Don't freakin tell me turtles are slow, that bastard outruns me every time. <_<

 

[givemfitz]

The big ones that dig huge burrows are kinda rare but box turtles are pretty common all over the south. And you don't even want to know all the different ones that are in the water. :huh:

well...they are called banana slugs...
but come on, TURTLES!!! just eat the chocolate, not the actual thing.
i remember i found this old recipe book at my elementary school back in the day;
and it had a recipe for pidgeon pie and i almost cried.
but i hate pidgeons, but i still wouldn't eat it.
