I hate that "you're only as good as your last post" mentality. Fresh... ly removed from your grocer's freezer? Even if the poor guy does truck them fresh and drive all night, which I can't imagine, it isn't too fresh by the time it gets there... and why in Splat Creek of all places? Definitely odd. Until later, Kelly Friar,

In Splat Creek, the truck was there today (by the traffic light). Selling "Fresh" scallops and lobster. (Ummm...HOW CLOSE to the ocean are we?)

Small town, but oh-so-scenic. I haven't been, but I've seen pictures. Your description is so good I'd almost try seafood for that sammitch. (Not truck-dude's, though.) Yes, poor Brett. Take him for a piggie burger sometime when he's got peanut-butter-and-leftovers. Until later, Kelly Friar,

Fresh squishy bread and cold, refrigerated lobster and mayo...the sammitches cost $8.00 each, but they were fantastic. I hadda go back for another. We actually have a guy in Splat Creek...who sells "fresh" seasfood from the side of a truck, by the traffic light. Ummm...yeah. Right. Considering how far we are from the ocean, I think I'd rather buy from McD's. @Brett No wonder you delight when your kids don't eat. Kelly, you should see what this poor guy packs for lunch sometimes. After his wife and 4 kids clean out the house, he eats whatever he can find in the fridge. Poor Daddy gets the dregs of the dregs. Makes for "interesting" meals, I must admit. @Kelly

Oh, that's beautiful. If Seth ever shows up (I've sent a couple of invites), he'll love it. You may have forgotten about the Free Prize Inside? Yes, daughter has gotten over her hamburger aversion, but most other beef is still ugh to her, no matter how fancy. More for me, as you say. Friar, A fresh lobster roll (like Brett had), puts anybody off the McVersion for a while. So I've been told. Besides actual fresh lobsters themselves. I don't get it but they are an obsession with lots of people. I always thought McLobster would sell a lot better inland, where people wouldn't be comparing it so harshly.... Maybe lobster is too much of an acquired taste for landlocked folks. Hm. "Piggie" tells me that wherever you are going tonight, I am not their target market. Even when I get in that mood I don't want it pointed out to me! LOL! Happy eating, Kelly Brett,
