Now, let&#8217;s get cooking! Boiling may be the most well known method for cooking crab, either alive or cleaned, in heavily salted fresh water, [...]]]></description>

I just couldn&#8217;t resist the process of preparing it for print-on-demand. And I have to say, I&#8217;m very happy with the results! I&#8217;d thought to keep it strictly in ebook form, but there&#8217;s nothing wrong with making the print version [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Preserving a seafood catch safely is a ticklish proposition; perhaps one of the most difficult is crab. The best way to keep your crab catch safe is actually very counter-intuitive. When crabbing, always follow The Rule. The Rule is, don&#8217;t eat any crab you haven&#8217;t killed yourself. Once you&#8217;ve pulled and emptied your trap, the crabs must remain alive [...]]]></description>

That reminded me of a series on crabbing that I wrote a few years ago, but never published here. Those who don&#8217;t live in crab country won&#8217;t find much use for some of this.

I went to town yesterday to run some errands, and decided to stop by our friend Ralph&#8217;s Garage Sale Store (see Museum of Lost Desires), one of the two places I last had the planner.
