Feeling Crabby....

Well I have neglected my blog to visit my home
The San Francisco Bay area!

It's Dungeness Crab Season here and I absolutely Love Crab! What better place to get Crab then Fisherman's Wharf?!

I love the ocean ....especially the salty air of the Bay.

Pier 39 is fun to go do all the tourist things but we wanted to go off a bit from the crowds and headed to Pier 47 with my beautiful Sister her two boys and my Dad. We decided to have lunch at Scomas!

Beyond Fabulous! The amount of fresh Crab you get and the quality is amazing!

and it wouldn't be San Francisco without Sourdough and Clam chowder!
This was just one of my many stops to enjoy crab...

I actually have a great recipe for Crab cakes that since I'm feeling so crabby I'll share it!

L's fabulous cakes
