Starting my MUST-DO list for the Summertime!!  I am not going to miss out this year.  Last year was kind of a dud because I worked so much but this Summer, I am going to be sure to make it a priority to do lots of fun things!!! If you know me, you know that lobster is one of my FAVORITE food on the planet!  My family is from the Northeast and we have always had lobster multiple times a year.  I will want to visit one or all of the places listed on the site when you click the link above.  They all look amazing! 



I love this website, ONLY IN YOUR STATE.  I go to this site quite often to get ideas on things to do that I haven't done yet or would like to do again.  They have a website for each and every state.

lobster chowda

so, yesterday i got home from work and got straight to making my lobster chowder... i have never made it before so since we had a TON of left over lobster meat, i figured i'd try to put it to good use... i was originally going to try a lobster bisque but ati really wanted something with potatoes etc. in it... so, i opted for some chowder... needless to say, after ati got done humping the bowl of chowder, he said it was EXCELLENT... ha ha .. so, i'm pretty happy about the whole thing... and just wanted to share... i'll send pics tomorrow of the good ole' HICKTOWN LOBSTER CHOWDA...

good fun and great eats.....
