Truluck's

What to do on Saturday night in Florida? Eat stone crab!

We made our way to Truluck's for Florida's famous stone crab, a delicious sweet crab grown in the warm waters off the coast. 

Fun fact: fisherman only ever remove one claw, as the limbs re-grow stronger and bigger, in less than one year. This is has helped fishing practices, sustainability and local number in the stone crab community!

We paired the stone crab with the new culinary trend of the "wine flight". Why have 1 glass when you can have 4?!?

More seafood than sense!

Sun Protection at its best!

Lets be honest, natural tanning went out years ago.

However since the disastrous spray tan of 2007, I decided to embrace my natural "off white" coloring!

Weekend in Florida

 Last weekend, we escaped the summer heat and headed to Florida for some sun and sand.

 

 We had a fantastic time soaking up the sun and surf, with all the conveniences of the city. We discovered a Morimoto Sushi bar in the hotel - delish!
 

Made to order!

Michael and Mary

We had a treat a few weeks ago, with Mary's infamous brother Michael popping into town!

David has known Michael and Mary since they were babies, and has fond memories of holding them both at the hospital!  Our "surrogate" cousins popped over for a BBQ for lunch and left close to dinner time - good times!

Belated blogging

I have been very tardy with the blogging of late..........partly due to computer problems, partly due to the fascination with my new iphone, partly Olympic fever and partly summer time shenanigans.

Never fear, I am back on board - more adventures to be posted shortly!
