I miss seafood.  I love my husband dearly, but his adult-onset allergy to shellfish has really put a crimp in our food lifestyle.  Amongst my favorites are mussels steamed in white wine and Maryland blue crabs.  Aside from the adults having gorgeous blue claws, they are delightfully yummy.  Crack one for me at the opening of the show resulting from this next Call.
