Crabby Dinner With The Mohs

CRABBY DINNER...

Buying the crabs is easy, cooking them is a problem!!  There are seven crabs to be cleansed and cooked, that is the real problem for Reanaclaire in this small kitchen with small pots and utensils.  Eventually I have to use three different forms of cooking these messy crabs.  LOL...

I ended up baking four in the oven, one in the multi cooker and two over the gas stove!  Oh my goodness, it was real messy and I don't think I want to do that again unless someone takes over the cleaning, brushing and cooking up the crabs.  No wonder they charge more outside... LOL..

OH, I forgot to mention this... The "vampire-styled slaying" was not done by me, I could not bring myself to do it... I am only in charge of bathing them up and making them edible... LOL..
Cleaning and brushing the shells.... takes a lot of time and effort!
Especially big ones... oh yes, needs a lot of hammering too!
Ended up baking and comes out like these... 
Too much flesh and messy!!
No wonder some do not like to eat crabs... they need too much fingers on them... 
Our dinner on that night... 
Mary brought over some Greece food!
One for the album before we dig into the food!

    I bet they were so thankful for all your hard work. Oh MY, it is a good thing you have so much energy. I would NEVER tackle such a job!

    I come to this place every now and then. The LA venues are really nice, the crowd is full of regulars, and the food and drink specials are pretty good! The staff is great and really gets to know your name. Totally worth your time on any night for good food and drink.

    I love crabs and I don't mind the messy job of cleaning. Best of all I don't mind getting my fingers messy to enjoy eating them. You did an amazing job cooking for your guests.

Three Hours City Tour At Ensenada, Mexico

A THREE HOURS CITY TOUR when we embarked in Mexico on the second morning.   My sister booked the three hours city tour in Ensenada, Mexico, a van came to pick us up from the port.  Ensenada is the border of Mexico and it reminds me of Hatyai, a border town too between Malaysia and Thailand.  We were taken to a shopping area where we must haggle for the goods.  LOL.. Yes, something common in my own country... Anyway, we did not buy anything for ourselves... just a wooden handmade truck for my grandson which cost $8usd.   Nothing much to shout about on this three hours excursion, I was so sleepy on the way back to the ship that I dozed off and only awaken when we were driven through the town.  All in all, I just wanted to step onto Mexican soil and I would give this a miss if I were to go on this Mexico cruise again.  LOL... At the open area shopping walking towards the Blowhole... This is La Bufadora Blowhole, an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of shooting water over 60 fe

Exploring The Sea Cruise Royal Caribbean

CRUISING ALONG.... Once we deposited our bags in our cabins, we had our buffet meal at the Hammerjack restaurant and exactly at 4pm, we heard a loud Horn signal...  ITS TIME TO SAIL ALONG THE PACIFIC OCEAN! And while the ship started to sail, we humans started to walk and explore.... to familarize ourselves inside the ship....  Elevators on each side of the ship....  Making my mark....  On another side....  We walked along to check out our food outlets... This Promenade Cafe  had became our regular joint .... We like to sit there enjoying our hot drinks and desserts... Free flow of food day and night.... Passing through the bars to the casino... The casino will open only when the ship is in international waters...  At one of the jackpot machines... I wonder if they are real?? But they are only $1 bundles... Then we went up to the highest floor.... The swimming deck.... Taken against the sun.... Nice sunset in the evening.... The Happy Trio!

First Day In The Royal Caribbean Cruise To Mexico

ROW ROW ROW YOUR BOAT.... gently down the sea....  Royal Caribbean, it is my second time following this giant vessel, the first time was from Singapore to Phuket, that was a very nice cruise.  So when my son mentioned that he found a good deal online, this time to Mexico, I agreed without hesitation.  Let's Go! A three nights stay with food and lodging only cost around $250 per person with at least one senior in per room.  Meals were either buffet style or fine dining, we can choose and cafes were opened 24 hours for us to rest and relax.  How not to resist... LOL...  And so here we are... just one week after landing in US, I was on the sea....  Looks small from afar...  It was a giant vessel with at least 14 floors.... On the way to embarking after Custom Clearance...  Our room for the next three nights....  Small and cosy.... And adjoining to my son's family room through a door...  The one with balcony cost a bit more...  A short briefing about safety after we checked in....
