From time to time

For those that are new, from time to time I break from "improving yourself" type talk. In it’s place, I offer an article regarding some tasty meal or wine (or both!) that I have experimented with.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you my dish of Crab Bisque!

This last weekend was my annual "Crab Bisque" weekend. I originally intended on sharing it with friends. Due to unforeseen circumstances, they had to cancel. However my heart (and stomach) were set on it so I decided to make it nonetheless.
This time of the year is always good for seafood when, I believe, it’s at it’s freshest. And thanks to Costco (a version of Sam’s, depending on where you live), crab can be found there on the cheap. My only problem with the crab was that it was still in the shell and I don’t have the right tools for cracking it open. So, I grabbed my Home Depot pliers and started working away. After 15 minutes, I started to wonder if the pliers were going to make it. But sure enough, the meat was liberated and we could all breath more easily.
If you’re saying to yourself "I can’t make crab bisque. It’s too complicated!" then you’re probably right. It takes a tremendous amount of skill and effort to put a bunch of stuff into a pot and boil it for 30 minutes. Whew!
But for those that are brave of heart, I offer you the recipe. If for some reason you can’t view it, contact me and I’ll email it to you.
Bon appetit!

Writers are oftentimes faced with the difficult challenge of trying to describe what cannot be seen, heard, touched or felt, using only black little letters on a white canvas.

I will be making this tomorrow! I wish I hadn’t seen it right before I go to bed, though. Now I’m going to have to raid the fridge! Bill Phillips from Body for Life might fly in from Maui and strike me dead in the next few minutes here.
Cliff,
Were you planning on making this for us? D*mn!
