Caught a Case of Crabs Thursday…

66 comments

… and this time it didn’t involve a bottle of Southern Comfort and a Phi Mu coed I met at the Kappa Sigma fraternity rush.*

KatyBeth had a great time. This is her kind of fishing; tie a freezer-burned chicken leg to a 10 foot length of string, pitch said chicken leg it into a couple feet of water, and notify Daddy when the string starts to move out to sea.

One of the catch.

We snapped this one to show the distinctive markings of blue crabs, but it does a better job of demonstrating what happens to idiots who don’t frequently reapply their sunblock, don’t you think?

*Just kidding, folks. Those girls were rich enough they didn’t have crabs. They had lobsters.

Just a girl:I have no idea how many bushels are in a case. But if I'd said bushel, the double entendre wouldn't have worked. Down here in the south, we boil our crabs, shrimp, and crawfish, usually with corn and potatoes. In South Carolina, they call it a low country boil.Try it come time. It's good!

Mmmmm, blue crabs . . . I went to elementary school in Maryland and only moved to MA for high school. As such, I have no idea who any of the original Pilgrims were, but I can still tell the different between a boy crab and a girl crab. Happy eats!
