I can't hear your lies what with my giant nutcracker chomping down on this claw and butter all over my chin thank goodness for bibs


Here's a labor-saver I learned from my Indian inlaws: that drawn (clarified) butter that's essential along with? They sell it in jars at the store. It's called ghee.

Lobsters used to be for poor fishermen and their families. They're scavengers so you're eating dumpster food.

You can buy live lobsters online and have them shipped so if properly stored you should be fine.

My parents almost always bring lobsters down from New England with them when they visit. They buy them the afternoon/evening before, keep them in the fridge with wet paper towels, then put them in a big cooler with ice packs the next morning, drive them down here and we feast on them that evening. Never had a dead one yet in 8 years.


Will you adopt me?
