A night of Midgets, Crab, and Deep Fried Ice Cream!

Tuesday Night, The down low after I got off work around 3pm, only ate a pb&j sandwich at lunch (noon), went to a tanning bed in preparation for our Cancun trip Jan 11-14! Sid's Styling & Tanning Shop - kind of ghetto, but Jeff was excited because the owner, Sid, was a midget, dwarf, little person (I don't know what is more politically correct) Plus... it was our first time there it was free!
My question then is, why ever pay a membership when you could go to a new tanning salon every time for free?

Then we went to dinner, I was so starvin that I told Jeff that I'd even eat at Joe's Crab Shack (we had passed it the day before an he mentioned how badly he wanted to eat there)
So most of you will know by now that I don't like seafood except for sushi occasionally and salmon. The fact that I was actually craving seafood was beyond me!
We ordered a bucket of clams, two different kinds of crab, and a side order of fried shrimp (for me), the bucket came with a husk of corn, two baked red potatoes, and a cup of melted butter. I thoroughly enjoyed it! eating the crab was quite the experience too!

Before we got our bucket our waitress, Carissa, came over and put "crab" bibs on us. The cracking, cutting, and forking out the meat from the shells was like a treasure hunt, I was pretty good at it! Almost every time the meat came apart from the shell in one huge chunk. Yummy!
Basically it looked like this minus the lobster!

I'm not sure if the experience was great because I was so hungry or because of the flavoring! It was in an Alabama Bauyo Seasoning! YUMMY! Oh and the fried shrimp, it was delicious! it was like eating chicken nuggets even though it was shrimp...

And then we finished the night off with Genuine Deep Fried Ice Cream from LaLuna's Mexican Restaurant. Oh My it was 'to die for' goodness!

Of course, On the way home Jeff stops to get a $5 Little Caesar's Pizza and ate like 4 pieces before going to bed... I don't know where it goes!?

Yeah Ashley (and the rest of you that make fun of me for "not liking any good food" can you believe it? I actually like Shrimp (not the naked kind though, it may mostly be the appearance of them that I don't like... but anywho I am a changed woman! and I know Jeff is pleased because Shrimp is one of his favorite foods! Now if he could just get me to like Cheesecake!)

I'm thinking of starting a blog. A real one. One that makes money. I'm still a stay-at-home mom, but instead of one kid I have 4 now...
