many months ago (I can't remember how long now, it's been that long) there was a commercial on TV for Red Lobster. Emma watched the buttery and saucy food much the way I would, with a vacant stare and salivating mouth. after the commercial was over she turned to me and told me that she really wanted to try eating lobster.
we'll get shrimp sometimes and I'll make clam chowder in the fall and winter but I've never cooked lobster because a) it's expensive even for one person, let alone 7 or 8 and b) I don't have the nerve to try cooking lobster.
I told her that maybe for her birthday we would have to go to Red Lobster so she could have a try. she is holding me to that suggestion. fortunately I had a gift card on my desk and then yesterday I discovered that I still had one in my purse that Tim and I were going to use when Kellan was born and then we had just one frazzling disaster right after the other and I was determined to get out of there on Halloween so I could be home when my kids went trick or treating that we simply forgot to use it.
we now have $50 to spend at Red Lobster!
I will have to take a couple of pictures and tell/show her opinion of lobster :)
