Lobsterfest ! ! ! !

 Katrina says  " I'm cold, can we go in now!"

I have a deep love of Seafood! So this type of Festival puts me in my best of moods. There are other venues to go to for the Lob-monster of the Seas, but this one brings it home for me at a price that makes me smile from ear to ear! This is where a couple can Hob Nob with the Lob, have two glasses of wine apiece and still make the waitress smile about her tip for under a hundred bucks. The price has gone up this year, (go figure) but it is still a great deal. Nowhere else have I seen TWO Lob-monsters on the menu for these prices. 

Plus there's the added value for me that it's a mile from where we live. The monsters were excellent. We now know to go early in the day, ( around 4 to 5 o'clock) so that the Lob's were not sitting in the hot water too long. Timing is everything, too far after the rush means you get Lobs that have cooked too much. Get there just as it begins and the Monsters are fresh in the pot. Ours were cooked just right.  Tender and sweet, not overcooked.

We had a great meal at a decent price at a friendly place close to home. I could not ask for more.

OK then, I was going to put together a recipe for Stuffed Patty Pan Squash. Stupid me, the season has passed. What I can see of them in the markets makes me realize that the ones left are end of season or those that have sat in some bin for awhile. I like my veggies fresh.  So this recipe will need to wait until I can do it justice. But I will make it. Because I think I have the right Twyst to make it snap in your mouth!
