Hi Fi
Just having a quick look at emails and adding to the blog whilst we are away in Devon and guess what????????? We purchased a Clovelly dressed crab today and are having it as a starter tonight before steak, mushroom and fryed spuds.

I’m a huge Waitrose fan – for food – I use Sainsbury’s for basics – but I wouldn’t set foot in a Tesco if it was the only supermarket on the planet (as it probably soon will be). Their domination of the market, their appalling record on property development and the way they treat their suppliers means they will not get my business – no matter how much they cut prices and how badly off I am. I’d rather eat grass casserole than shop there. Food simply cannot be that cheap and still be ethically produced and sourced

Ooh, Dungeness Crab – delicious! A few years ago I spent a few weeks in Canada with my school friend. This was before they bought a business and actually had some time off. We went to Sidney Spit, just off Vancouver Island, on their boat and moored at the dock there for a few days. Her husband and son did the man thing and set crab traps and any catches were put in what they called a “crab hotel” (which I re-named Death Row) until we had enough for a meal for 5. We spent a happy hour or so picking all the meat out of the shells and later gorged ourselves. We had so much crab meat that we ate it until it came out of our ears over the next couple of days, eating sandwiches just bursting with crab and salad. So decadent and so free!
