I was out on the back deck taking some product photos for the blogs yesterday when this moth landed nearby. Since he was hanging out for the shoot, I figured I’d make use of the zoom on my camera and get a snapshot of him, too. You know it’s summer here when you see moths everywhere – they fly into the house if you have the door open for .02 seconds, and then proceed to panic and buzz around frantically. These “Visitors” inside the home are one of my least favorite things about summer, although I like them fine outside.

Last year, I was drinking one of my Nurisystem shakes from a Blender bottle, and looked down halfway through to see a dead moth floating in it. To this day, I am COMPLETELY STUMPED as to how that can happen. The bottle was in my hand the entire time that I got it out of the cupboard, added ice and the shake mixture; and I always look into my cups and glasses before I fill them. How in the world a moth could fly into a bottle with a snap-top lid while I’m holding it still stumps me, but suffice to say, I’ll never look at a protein shake quite the same way – although the moth did get the worst end of it…
