Wow....
 

Sounds like a fabulous time!

I am glad you had some fun and relaxation. And food too!
yum yum....

I always steam my lobster. You put a few rocks in the bottom
of a stock pot, to raise it up, and only put the water below the rocks... then the steam only rises, and your lobster is perfect.
(not mushy)

I learned this from a trip to Maine one summer.

I sometimes get frozen lobster tails here, and steam those also in my steamer.

That crab sounds divine!

Welcome back!

OK now
 

I believe you said " You gotta come here to get the real thing". I'm coming.:D Is tomorrow too early for you?:winky:

Just teasing, I love crab and I've never had crab the way you are describing it. Sounds just wonderful! Eat one for me, please....

The other day I had the scare of my life. I was in my local fish store, where I buy my Turbo Fillet. I was in the aisle talking to the proprietor, Lam, who I have a very nice relationship with. He tells me what is fresh, what is frozen, what is a good piece of fish, etc.

All of a sudden I feel something moving behind me. and I turn and jumped out of my skin. There was a barrel of MOVING THINGS IN THEM. And they were moving. They were some kind of crabs jumping all over each other. Then some guy came with big tongs or something similar and he had a devil of a time choosing a dozen of these things and putting them in a bag. I just looked.

Believe me I have never seen live things in a barrel jumping on top of each other. Reminds me of years ago when I was in my local Waldbaums and I went over to the fish department where the Lobsters were. I knew NOTHING about lobsters at that time.

Well, I'm standing next to Alan, when the Lobsters started walking across the counter.

You DO NOT WANT TO KNOW HOW LOUD I SCREAMED.

Gave Alan a good laugh, that I will tell you.

Mmmm. You guys are making me sooo hungry and I am trying so hard to drop some weight...

Boy, those things are expensive, aren't they? I bet my husband could eat 2 full orders of those crabs... Me? I would prefer lobster, but the days of eating lobster out are few and far between right now, since our vehicles have to eat too... :)

Glad you had a nice time, Bob.

I love lobster tails. Rarely get them. My mom and I are going to go for them when I have a good night. I had whole lobster 1 time and never again. I found little black eggs and yuck. I will stick to the tails.
