Lisa has just shared this picture
of a Squat
Lobster and asked if anyone would be interested
in Lobster Bisque.

Funny thing is, Marilyn, about the
same time, sent me this email:
I was
thinking of Anastasia this morning as I read a food blog. Just one cookbook!
This American is in Japan and her kids are fishing for crawfish as
apparently they are kept as pets there. As kids we used to play with these things
as we chases them in the Wilson River. They always moved backwards
and hid under rocks. I remember Anastasia coming to visit us on the farm. It
must have been when Baba & Guido were still living. To our horror,
she collected a pail full and cooked them. I don't think anyone ate them. Maybe
my Dad did as he was most adventurous. Now I wish I had tried them. I
remember her talking about them being eaten in Sweden for some festival. Now I
wish I had tried. Another cousin picked the clams. Now that is another story.

Dad once collected a pail
of crayfish, too, and boiled them. They turned bright red but nobody knew
how to eat them. We just looked at them.
I’ve eaten some now, though, in the southern States. I’d like to say they were great, but,
honestly, they didn’t make a big impression on me.

Lobster Bisque, however – now, THAT would be something!
