Jim Hughes Funky Lobster Claw

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hi Joey,

   An interesting event happened last night at our neighbors Lobster party. They went to a market here in Naples and asked for 9-1 1/2 pound lobsters. They were given 2 bags full of Lobsters and brought them home.  As they were cooking, this claw was noticed. Apparently, something under the sea also has a craving for this fine meat. All they got of this one was a bite, and the bite had grown over with a dark hard shell. I’m sure that you have seen this a lot, but it was a first for us. It made a great conversation piece.

Can you guess the year?

Posted on by Sharon

This shot was taken from the top of one of the rides at Fiesta. Not sure if there are enough clues, but see if you can figure out what year it was and how you made your decision. Have fun!     —Sharon

Here’s another one from the same year.

And one more.

Sista Felicia Kicks Some Panini Ass

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

She tells me that ever since she got this panini press that she uses it at least once a day and is thinking of having a panini cooking demo/party.  I’ll let y’all know when we iron out the details.  Hers is a Delonghi and looked to be constructed pretty solidly.
