Crawfish!


Crawfish season is March-June and they are for sell by the bag!   A popular Texas and Louisiana tradition. Yes, these are alive. They resemble small lobsters but can survive out of the water if kept moist. The bags have 30-40 lbs of crawfish. You usually plan on 5 lbs per person. 
Boiled and ready to eat!  Hal is excited!  Me not so much...

Hal's first serving!  Just kidding...
Poor little guy! 
Sister Crawford is breaking the head from the tail.  The tail is really the only part with anything to eat.  It takes a fair amount of effort. We both liked the taste, Hal enjoyed the process.  I preferred the shrimp!
