Got Crabs?



Today's Friday! Things are going great. When the girls got off the bus after school they came home to 6 Tanner Crabs crawling in our grass. So when I came home I made a phone call to Sharon and she and her husband Dean had about 30 crabs in their Cod Pots, so they brought us some. Well we called over Jason from next door to show Lars what to do. You take the 4 left legs and bend then at the base of the body until they pop out. Then you throw them in a boiling pot of water about 2 inches deep with a little salt and put a lid on and steem for 20 min. Wala! We froze half of them and ate the rest! Sharon called and asked if I wanted to bring Trace over to her house to see the octopus they had in one of the pots. Trace wouldn't even get out of the truck at first. I tried to get him to hold one of the legs, and he said No Way Jose! I even tried to get him to hold a crab and got the same response. We came back and took over a crab to Marlene and Paul and watched Waylon Jennings Documentary. Awesome!!! We are going to buy it. The girls went to their first KC dance. No one would dance so the girls got out there and showed them how it's done. Saije was doing some twirly thing and ate it in the middle of the whole school. She is so cute. Tomorrow is Trace and Lars' Birthday party. Trace invited all of the Head start kids, it should be fun.
