Seeing as my lunch is at your dinnertime, I'll tell you I had soft-shell crab (for the first time ever)

Crap

Leftovers

Dessert: Steaming cuppa Peet's Jasmine Fancy :)

How was it? Tried it once in No. Carolina and the shell was not soft enough for us, we might have just gotten a bad one.

It was delicious, soft and succulent. The body was only as crunchy as the panko coating it, and the legs were crispy, but again in a french fry crispy way, not a prawn shell type of way.

I've fallen in love with the fish markets all over again. They've added so much since I last saw them. There's now greengrocers, bread shops, kitchen gadget shops, wine shops... it reminds me of the Ferry Terminal markets in SFO, but more intimate.

We'll have to give them another try. They sound delicious!

Macaroni and cheese

... but the homemade-from-scratch kind, rather than the usual box kind :). Used the BH&G cookbook recipe, eliminated the onion (by request... I'd have kept it), and in addition to the dash of black pepper, added nutmeg, white pepper, and a sprinkling of salt.

I think it would have benefited from my usual mac & cheese extras of minced garlic and rosemary. Or at least some garlic, even if it was just a little garlic powder.

Bacon (of the turkey variety) sandwiches. Mmmmm, comfort food.

Mmm... bacon sounds good
