The other weekend my friend Holly returned from Maine, where she'd been working on a lobster boat for the first time, and brought along a big box of live soft-shell Maine "bugs". They've recently molted, so you can easily tear all the armor apart with your hands once they're cooked. Not very big, but tasty.

The first batch... dig in!!


     



As Munchausen would say: "so many beautiful ladies..."  ;D
From L-R: Holly, looking very pleased with herself (and rightly so!); her daughter Ella, and Lyell's daughter Parlin is taking care of a yummy ear of fresh NJ corn.

     




"Hi, I'm Jada, Holly's new friend.
I'm a shelter pup, so you may notice I really want to play, but I'm kinda scared of all of you, especially the smelly old dog with three legs... and about the eerie mage-light coming out of my eyes...? It's OK, it won't hurt you.
We cool now?"

     


Lyell strikes a glamorous pose...


     



And of course, the best portrait of the evening ends up out of focus!! "Foolproof", my eye...

Stevie Z is haunting the loft again for a while (and always cooking; made a nice bisque later out of the leftovers)... Holly and Parlin again, and Lyell's friend Sherri.

There are things in this world that should be made illegal.
Posting pictures like these, before lunch when I am starving is one of them.

That corn was probably grown right down the road from me. I think it's one the last corn fields in the state that are used for consumption.

MMMMMM I love lobster, well  I love seafood in general, but lobster tops the list, just under Snow Crab.  Never had fresh lobster like that, must have been heavenly!

You do live the life Sean............lucky you !  8-)

Lobsters, brought fresh to you by a nice looking lady... Sean been a good boy?  ;D

Looks like a very tasty party! Enjoy!  ;)

Nice Sean, here is one I pulled up from my friend's lobster traps when we were in Cape Cod last month!

Cool shot Dave! It has that "let's be friends" feel all over it, with those opened claws and all...  ;D

You have to love Jada  :) Boxers are one of my favourite dogs  8-)

Good friends and good food!!  What a life!!

Awwhhh what? Poor lobsters. They are one of the greatest creatures around and you go and kill and eat them.

Some people...

"Life at the Loft"...ya gotta love it...  ;D  

Excellent shots Sean and I love that kitchen wall.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug
