So, inevitably, when we talk about moving back to NS, hubby and I always talk about the food. Mmmmm, food.
There is the normal seafood that I look forward to. Lobster, crab, scallops, haddock, all that good stuff. What makes it even better, is that my Step-dad does work for a local dock, and they often give him the fresh stuff right off the boat! With hubby working away, I’ll make those girls seafood lovers in no time. The seafood however you can get just about anywhere. Through the magic of hi-speed shipping, you can get fresh seafood here in Edmonton! Although, when I became an adult and saw that people ate lobsters in restaurants, and fancy ones at that, I was shocked. My family, no word of a lie, turns into a bunch of ravenous animals when they have a feed of lobster. First is the layer of garbage bags on the table, then comes a layer of newspaper to soak up all the juices. Then, usually one of my aunts will also fashion a bib of sorts from the garbage bags. Then the hammers and pliers come out and get sterilized. Then the frenzy begins. No buns, coleslaw, or potatoes as sides for my family! It’s strictly the lobster and butter. Every bit of the lobster gets eaten. Every single bit, even the green stuff. My brother and I would dip the little legs in butter and suck the juice out. Seriously, could you imagine my family at a fancy restaurant eating lobster??? Neither could I!
Nope, the food that we really crave is the fast food, if you want to call it that. Donairs, donair pizza, pizza flips, pizza in general! Homemade bread from a hole-in-the-wall bakery, Tatamagouche butter, BBQs at my aunts’ house, I could go on and on! We’re going to have to do a lot of swimming to work all those calories off!! I can’t wait!
