A Very UMass Halloween, Volume II

Nathalie and I kept up the tradition of cooking lobster and steak on Halloween this year. I purchased the lobsters at Market Basket, my new local grocery store. Unfortunately, with Market Basket's cheap prices comes half-dead or all-dead lobsters. One of the lobsters I was handed wasn't moving, and when I stated this fact to the butcher, he took the lobster out, shook it around in the air, and exclaimed "Yeah, it's moving!" As I knew these lobsters were arriving in lobstey-heaven in less than an hour, I didn't question the dude. 

Not too much to tell ya that wasn't covered in last year's episode, except that we ran out of room in our tummies for lobster after eating the delicious overdone steak. We ended up picking apart the lobsters and put their delicious parts in a container to be cooked with later. And cook I did! Made some homemade breaded lobster mac and cheese, inspired by a delicious meal recently eaten at John Harvard's in, you guessed it, Hahvahd Squeah. No pictures due to it's astronomical deliciousness.

  

Nath showing some lobster murdering determination!

No idea why their claws turned white. I left my lobster cracker at my old apartment so we couldn't enjoy the best part :(

Not to toot my own horn, but I kicked some serious butt in Halloween costume creating this year. Going to have to top myself next year -- I've already begun brainstorming.
