I’m getting a good sized power bank with usb outlets, some led rope lighting and fake neon signs and plugging them in. then zip tying it to the arch of our boat and joining the party!

Crabmeat is my favorite seafood even though they’re a lot of work to shuck. Crab cakes are really easy to make with mostly ingredients you probably already have in the pantry. YouTube any crab cake recipe- they’re all good! I did mine in the air fryer 15 minutes at 375. I highly recommend this method
