foamy stuff on my plants

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

I just discovered little patches of foamy stuff on leaves and stocks of 
plants.  I resembles(if you'll pardon the expression)spittle.  Does anyone 
know what it is and or how to get rid of it and the critter that created it?
It isn't tent worms---we had those a couple of times before.  
Oh, incase no one answered the question about the plants whose leaves were 
turning into green lace--I had that one year and the extention service said 
it was leaf miners.  They get betwee the top and bottom of the leaves and 
suck out everything in between.  The extention service offered no organic 
solution-- the suggested diazinon.  I used my homemade hot pepper, tobacco 
infusion(water which I soaked tobacco in for several days) and dish soap and 
it did the trick for me.  I just dilute it and strain it and spray it in the 
cool part to the day.  Sorry I have never been exact about the measurements.

about those very poor mannered critters expectorating on my garden.
