Spring 2010!

I do believe that spring and fall are my favorite times of the year. Yes, I do love summer and winter but spring and fall are by far my favorite. I love spring because of the GORGEOUS days, flip flops, dresses, flowers bloom, yard work and everything else that comes with spring. I love fall because its so refreshing after the boiling hot summers, its mine and Zach's birthday time, our anniversary, Halloween(I love Halloween!) and the changing of all the trees.

One thing that also comes with Spring is Crawfish! I don't eat crawfish.,.. yes, I've tried it! There is just something about it that grosses me out! I love going to crawfish boils though. I eat the potatoes, corn and sausage and just watch everyone else eat the crawfish.

So far this Spring I have been to 3 crawfish boils already. It amazes me how people just rip in to this little creatures like this is their last meal. Break the tail off, pull the meat out, suck the heads(sick!), and eat the claws and move on to the next on before they even swallow this first one.
Zach's friend invited us to his crawfish boil this past weekend. Between 13 (not including me) people, 60 pounds of crawfish never knew what hit them. In a blink of an eye it was all gone!
I sill manage to stuff my face with sausage, potatoes, and mushrooms.
Me and Zach while the 2nd batch of crawfish finished cooking.
The Master Crawfish Boiler, Randall.
Rick and Paige. Paige is from Louisiana. She definitely showed everyone how it was done. She is a pro at peeling crawfish.
Stacey, me and Heather a few weekends ago at the Crawdad Hole in Jackson. Six people this night went through 11 pounds of crawfish.

Crawfish, crawdads, mudbugs or whatever you want to call them makes Spring complete!
