my beloved amphibians! fresh lively frogs at the market. (in Chinese: "tian ki" - literal translation: "field chicken") This picture depicts the moment when they just got their heads lopped off in midst of the slaughter. I was with grandpa on his daily grocery trip when he stopped by this stall to buy some frogs for a dinner dish that night b/c it's one of my childhood fave. i love my grandpa b/c he's so thoughtful it warms my heart ^_^
pictures of the cooked result: http://www.sixthseal.com/2005/10/eating_frogs_and_eels_in_sabah.html
