Our Very Own Charlotte

I've been reading Charlotte's Web to the kids and today we found our own Charlotte.

Here's an exerpt:

"You mean you eat flies?" gasped Wilbur.

"Certainly. Flies, bugs, grasshoppers, choice beetles, moths, butterflies, tasty cockroaches, gnats, midges, daddy longlegs, centipedes, mosquitoes, crickets -- anything that is careless enough to get caught in my web. I have to live, don't I?"

"Why, yes, of course," said Wilbur. "Do they taste good?"

"Delicious. Of course, I don't really eat them. I drink them -- drink their blood. I love blood," said Charlotte, and her pleasant, thin voice grew even thinner and more pleasant.

EEEEWWWWWW! So glad our dear Charlotte is OUTside!
