Pass the Salmon please.

I learned something about my family tonight....

....they were not meant to live on the east coast.

We were at Costco today, and Chandler showed a lot of interest in the fresh seafood stand, so I decided to buy some new stuff that they haven't tried. The kids liked the looks of the clams and mussels. I thought, 'oh, this will be fun...we'll have a clam bake, with corn, and potatoes, and this will be great!'. Well, Chandler loved it...at least the mussels. Matt, told me he'd rather have his clams in his chowder. Morgan, I think she tried one bite, shuddered, and that was the end of that. Gabe, said it tasted like dirty water. I thought they were great, as long as I didn't look at the mussels when I ate them. Bear, our dog, however, was a BIG fan. Are dogs supposed to eat crustaceans? Oh well. Too late now.

So for now, I guess we'll have to stick with our local catches of salmon, halibut, and snow crab. (ya, 'cause we eat snow crab on a daily basis) But the kids LOVE it. That, and shrimp. I know, my kids have expensive taste. What can I say?
