I purchased a couple of good size live lobsters today for a nice Lenten meal
for Mrs.H and me............$14.99/lb for lobsters over 2 pounds.....$75
total......ka-ching!

The problem: I forgot a fact about lobsters molting their shells in
Spring a customer of mine from Maine told me many years back. The damn
shells on these lobsters were almost an eight of an inch thick and needed a
set of channel locks to break open the claws. This was about the worst
time of year to buy them as their shells are at their thickest.

Regardless............the meal was still great.

We are looking forward to having lobster and lobster rolls during our New
England trip this Fall.



Where are you going? I know a few places in Connecticut, Massachusetts
and Maine worth stopping at for a meal.
