Climate Change? Nahhh ...

It doesn't matter whether you are in Anchorage or Calabash, the crab legs still come from Alaska.
We get local blue crabs, but even straight off the dock, they are pulling the big crab legs out of a freezer.
 
My wife and I had lunch in our favorite Calabash place a couple of weeks ago (between me reeling in all those spotfish that wouldn't bite). They've had the same lunch special -- fried flounder, fried clams, fried shrimp, deviled crab ... pick two -- forever. It's about the same price, too ($8.75, IIRC). They've never offered fried oysters, though, so she and I always split a side order of those. Soooooo bad for one's health, but soooooo good for one's soul.
 
Every great once in a while I get a craving for oysters Bienville, but otherwise I'm not much of a fan. But the smell of oysters being grilled is sublime.
 
I grilled some clams last week because oyster season wasn't open yet.
We have an old school Calabash style place on the island that is as step back in time when you go there. The food is good, but the atmosphere of getting to eat supper in the '50s is actually better. I go there maybe once every other year just for that.
 
Pulled from a Facebook page. This is the USS Kidd, a World War II destroyer that is docked as a museum ship in the Mississippi River in Baton Rouge.
