I'm "home" (e.g. in Massachusetts) for the first time in a year, and I like how my mom has now begun making moonshine. (It must be the Kentucky roots.) Unfortunately, the results leave something to be desired. Namely, you could not pay me to drink the onion-based alcoholic concoction she has come up with. The grape-based "wine" is slightly better, but that's not saying a whole lot either.
Like last year, we are doing a lobster dinner for the holidays. In case you hadn't heard, due to a decline in demand from the recessionary economy and a bountiful lobster haul this year, the price of lobster has fallen to ridiculously low levels. So, when our fishmonger told us that lobster was $4.75/lb, my mom decided to double her intended order to 20 lobsters. That's right, there will be a 2.2:1 lobster:human ratio at this meal. And let's not even get started on the soft-shelled crabs.
