Makes Me Smile Monday


Starting the day out with "Colossal" cinnamon rolls.  Hubby and my brother, who did come to visit afterall (yay!), made a quick trip to the grocery to grab some of these rolls.  They are HUGE, maybe 6-7 inches in diameter!  And oh, so good.



And then this afternoon the fellas took a trip downtown to the fish market and picked up some live crabs.  To some this might not seem like such a big deal but growing up in the midwest we just didn't get fresh seafood.   The guys cooked them up with some crab boil spices we found at Penzey's Spices.  They were impressed with the taste of their culinary endeavor, but said that it was a lot of work to get the meat out of the crabs.  Also on the downside, our whole house has a boiled fishy smell.  Ew, that doesn't make me smile much.  But it was fun to see them experiment in the kitchen and to watch the kids reaction to live crabs clamoring around in the sink.
