Anybody wishing to have real lobster has to come to Maine, so my hubby tells me. Not eating seafood, I can't vouch for that!

Lobsterfest in Portland, ME, anyone?! You can all kip on my floor....

:lol:

Becuz I was stuck with my Exhusbands lastname and I absolutley HATE it. ( Didn't change it coz I knew I would be marrying my new Hubby at some point) .

Everyone comments how well my first name and his lastname go together so well.

Joel took me up to Digby...had some awesome fantastic scallops there. Digby, world famous scallops. We took a tour of an old fishing boat...the tour guide man (it was self guided, he was at the end to answer questions) told me what raw scallops were good for...ahem...i still won't eat a raw one ;)

Well Shon (or anyone else!), if you make it up to Maine then let me know! I feel a little lonelisome here in the extreme NE! I might even take you somewhere with good lobster!

it was getting tense. I am leaving for Red lobster shortly.

now that i seen that 14lb lobster. dang. I am gonna have to imagine

big time .they dont have them that big at red lobster.

I missed where this turned to lobsters....but...I am a lobster freak! I just went to Red Lobster on Wednesday for Lobsterfest. I want more.

My last name is so boring and common. It is also not my real last name. My mom changed our last name in an effort to lose my psychotic father. It worked to chose a common name but it has no meaning to me, no history.
