Around here we have Chesapeake Bay crabs - which are really delicious - but a whole lot of work for just a little meat. There's a knack to picking crabs that I have never mastered, and all I end up doing is cutting my fingers up on the sharp shells, and getting the Old Bay seasoning in the cuts, which stings like the devil. If someone picks them for me, I'm only too happy to pig out on them!
Yummy!!! I'm with you, Ellie. Maine lobster sounds so good!! I don't know anybody than can afford lobster. I always look at the lobsters in the store and know they are the same ones I saw last week.

I love crab too!!! Love it!! We have blue crabs here and they're just like your's. Alot of work for a little meat. I really enjoy making crab cakes when the big can of Phillips crab meat goes on sale.
