Fresh yummy crab!

I am such a seafood lover! One of my close friends is driving up from Maryland and bringing 3 dozen large steamed crabs with her!
We did this last year (crabfest I !) and had the best time.
I just wanted to share! When I lived in AZ for 8 years it was hard (impossible!) to get really fresh fish. Now that I'm in PA I can't get enough.

We're having crab tonight too! DH comes home from a trip in about 15 minutes and those lively guys are going into the steamer! I made a roasted corn red cabbage slaw for a side along with local tomatoes, mozarella and basil from my deck for a salad.

Enjoy your crabfest!

I'm so jealous! Thats one thing I really really miss about living back east. I loved being at my dads boat or my sisters house in MD and getting fresh crab or any seafood for that matter. I try to get it when I'm back in the DC area to see my family.

I can't believe I'm going to say this, but there was too much crab! It was so delicious and fresh I loved it! Ther were 2 couples and my friend and I, along with 7 kids. Most of the kids didn't like the crab; I'm sure they will when they get older! It was a fun night.

It would have been a perfect meal if my friend remembered the Bergers cookies! AND Nick was there with me too!
