07.31.2008 :: 211. eating local
I think Fig might be asking himself, "What the HELL is that?"
Honestly, you have to applaud the first person that ever looked at that creature and thought that it looked like dinner.
But? Dinner it is.
The lobster (Lobstah, really) showed up here as a bit of a thank you present for my taxi services for my in laws as of late. Andy does not care for lobster too much so he went without. He would have to pry a bite out of my cold dead hands anyway!
:)
As luck would have it, I had planned a steamed clam dinner so that little lobster fit right in!
Notice the little clam salt and pepper shakers on the table? They were a present from my Norma. I can't tell you how much I love them~! You may have seen them on their little adventures over on her blog. They've had quite the fun this week!
Quite the yummy staycation this is turning out to be!

Mmmmm. After seeing this, I think I NEED a steamer lunch today. With salty garlic butter.
And, yeah, WANT those shakers. As a resident of Massachusetts, we should ALL get a free set.

Now you've got people all over the country saying, "You lucky B*TCH! THAT is a local meal for you? Lucky."
Did you get the plug out of the pepper shaker????

Yum! And I love those salt and pepper shakers, I must get some the next time I'm at Woodman's (we try to go once a summer). Sounds like you're having an excellent staycation, I hope FIL is doing well.

Yum, indeed. I can't imagine a better dinner! Too bad there are no lobsters in Lake Michigan - only PCBs.

Delicious! And well done for cooking it yourself too. I'm still a bit chicken to cook one!

Enjoyed your lobster story, and was inspired to write up my own on my blog.
