hi, pen

6:34 pm

penquis

hi welki...

6:35 pm

welki

could go for a lobster roll right about now :)

6:35 pm

penquis

lol....i had one last week....i think it was $10.99.... ;o)

6:36 pm

penquis

got it at a gas station convenience store....cheapest around....

6:36 pm

welki

not surprising, considering how expensive lobster is this time of year, that time of year, all year

6:37 pm

welki

i bought a live one two weeks ago (and a dungeness crab) - was an expensive meal, but worth the splurge

6:37 pm

penquis

sounds yummy.....haven't bought a live one in a long time....there is a place here that will cook them for you for a small fee....

6:38 pm

welki

i prefer crab, he prefers lobster - so we each have a little of the other's and enjoy our feast

6:38 pm

penquis

i like them both!... ;o)

6:38 pm

welki

they'll steam them here, too (for free), but i don't mind doing it at home, especially if dinnertime is hours away

6:39 pm

penquis

my place is small....don't like to smell up the place....

6:39 pm

welki

ohhh, i like them both, too - wish i had access to blue claw and soft-shells, i sure miss them

6:40 pm

welki

if you throw in a little old bay, it smells lovely, like the sea :)

6:40 pm

penquis

here i eat Maine crab once in a while....i like all kinds of crab....

6:42 pm

welki

during summers, we rented a place on the maryland shore - that's when the tablecloth was brown paper and dozens of blue claws were steamed (with old bay) and picked apart with reckless abandon

6:43 pm

penquis

very nice...i visited someone years ago who lived in the Potomac area and they had a cage where they kept some crab....had a feast outdoors there in a special open, roofed area ....yummy....

6:44 pm

welki

sometimes i wonder what i'm doing in the prairies *lol*

6:44 pm

penquis

what are you doing there???

6:45 pm

welki

beats me *LOL*

6:45 pm

penquis

are you American or Canadian?

6:46 pm

welki

dual - brb, face time with grand-daughter :)

6:46 pm

penquis

sure...

6:51 pm

welki

oh they're hilarious at three years old

6:54 pm

welki

hmmm - they're pretty hilarious at any age, i suppose. she threw a fit because she didn't want to put pajamas on under a robe i'd sent to her. i mean, a tantrum, the video shows all! LOL she told her mother, 'i wanna talka grandma, i love her!' so after she calmed down, she was allowed to call via face time - love the video capacity

6:55 pm

welki

capability, not capacity

6:57 pm

penquis

cool...

6:58 pm

welki

the robe is fleece, so i guess it would have felt great with no p.j.s on underneath

6:59 pm

welki

<-- needs a fleece robe :D

7:04 pm

penquis

i have on my fleece robe right now... ;o)

7:07 pm

welki

i guess i should get moving - making a caesar salad with chicken tonight, something light - do you need a clue or two before i go?

7:14 pm

welki

guess not - bye for now
