Escargot on get the hell outta here

Is this the kind of snail you might eat in France? Just your ordinary garden snail? Because, if so, I need never go to the grocery store again. My family can feast every night.
Months ago Jennifer told me to just step on them if I want to get rid of them. The thought of the crunch and the squish made me too squeamish. However...I do like the plants in our garden. So much that I seem to have overcome my squeamishness. Yesterday and today I have plucked close to 40 snails, placed them on the frisbee, carried them to the back lane, and stamped on them. With glee. Crunch. Squish.

Apparently to raise eating snails you just put them in your greenhouse and let them live and slime in there! GAWD!!!

if I were you I'd get greater satisfaction out of just flinging the frisbee far, far away to have them land in someone else's garden and become someone else's problem. just sayin'.

I like watching them disintegrate into beer. But that's just me. 40... boy oh boy.
