UFM Food Porn - Blue Crab Fest

A LOVE LETTER TO BLUE CRAB
Corny, I know..


Dearest Blue Crab...
Blue, How I've Missed Thee!
How I've Missed Your Sweet, Delicate Flesh...
I know.. I know...
There may have been others over the years...
Dungeness, Alaskan King and even Faux, I am ashamed to say..
But you have to know, that you have always been my Favorite.
No other Crustacean could ever compare!
Sure, they were bigger, but bigger doesn't always mean better.
And although they were easier to eat,
I honestly can say that I missed the satisfaction of having to work harder for you.
It just wasn't the same...
And I know...
I've been gone a really long time..
But it's not like you've been there either...
You've been so... so... unavailable in the West Coast.
Yet, I still found myself longing for you.
You have to know that I've thought of you often.
And I am so happy to be reunited at last.
So there you have it..
I'm much closer now,
which means that I can find you much easier..
And this makes me very happy!

Until we meet again, Old Friend...

Yours In Food,

The Urban Food Maven aka The Raptor
