I have completely and utterly become accustomed to nights, which is fantastic when you're working but sucks when you're on your "days" off. Its an ungodly 4:10 am right now, and Ive been up for an hour and a half already, and there's no relief in sight. To top it all off I just went to bed at 11:30. On my time off I seem to cat nap here and there

I would love to hear your tips for crusacean-cleaning. I mean, I've done it all myself before, but I'm sure that I can't do it well. Do share!

It really wasn't anything special, just a straight up "This is where the meat is" kinda tips.

In my books if you get the meat out and you have all your fingers left at the end of the meal then you're doing just fine

Our next-door neighbour back in Ottawa had this insane system that, while efficient, I can't remember for the life of me. It was surgical in its precision, and may have involved using the little claw to pull everything else out of the body (like how I love using the shell from the first mussel I eat as a clamp to eat the other ones).

Goes to show she's a teacher.
