Christmas Dinner?
Original Message   Dec 26, 2004 4:55 am
What did you all have?

Mmm, crab legs...big 'uns! (stick-o-butter for scale)

...and had smoked salmon for breakfast!

God, I love Alaska!

My cousin lived in Alaska for, hmm, 15 years? or so as both a Federal Park Ranger and a Alaskan Park Ranger, he is a Air Marshal now, well anyway he stayed with my family and I about 4 years ago now and he had those same crab legs shipped from Alaska to himself while he was with us. We had them on Christmas. I'll be honest I did not think I would like them at all and they were unbelievably good. Great memories.

I have allways loved crab. But because I am not a fisherman, I don't get them free. And the resteraunts want a arm and a leg for them to eat there. Haggens foods, also cost alot to buy crab there. Well, I am glad you liked them. I also like Lobster Salmon, Trout, Tuna. Oh...and I forgot. I like clams too!

Hick- Next time invite us over. To tease us with King crab legs is not right! - Kris

I agree....taunting us with pictures and everything!

What's that Hickster? We're all invited over to your house for all-you-can-eat crab legs? Heck...since I'm from the dairy state, I'll even bring the butter .... I think I foresee a bus ride ahead....

Never eaten any crab legs but they look good to me. Raised up in South Louisiana where crabs, shrimp,crawfish, catfish is a standard diet. My wife,and I do tell here all the time, she is the best cook in the world, she cooked- a Turkey breast, ham, dressing, fruit salad, candied yams, snap beans, potato salad, corn, plus cakes, and you name it for desert. I ate a little too much and have been working on the left overs. Wish you all a Happy New Year and may the Almighty God let us see another one. Your friend---Will

Marshall---He is a bad cat. Pretty day down in northeast Louisiana, have had 6 freezes in a row(we are not used to that) but it is warming up. Warm enough to work outside so I took my deck off my Oldest (828 MTD) and , wire brushing, cleaning it up good, primer painting it, putting one new belt and sharpening the blades. No grass not but it will be. Bless all of you---Will

Hickster,
Every New Years Eve we have king crab legs, but this year we got delayed a day due to work. But the cookies are out and the legs are ready to go in. At 16.99 a pound we don't have the 5 pound spread you had but they sure look good.

I hope you are getting some snow to go with the great food. It's the middle of winter, and I swear it was 70 degrees here today.

Those crab legs look delicious! I haven't had 'em since summer. Usually plentiful here in NJ...

Had ham with brown sugar/orange juice/pineapple glaze, lasagna, spinach, string bean casserole with Durkee Onions on top (my FAVE!), corn, smashed potatoes, fresh italian bread, pickled artechokes, shoo-fly pie (dad's fave), home made cookies & struffoli.
