Another Spectacular Weekend!

Back to the Jersey shore this weekend.
The weather was spectacular...NO RAIN!









We of course went crabbing again- but the crabs were no where to be seen.
I don't know if its the beginning of the molt...the full moon ...or they just knew we were there!









Luckily we did get enough to make another spectacular dinner though.


My son was eager to fish and he caught several small flounder and a few small snapper. He was thrilled!










Chef's Silvio and Rosalba prepared another unbelievable dinner.














This time we were right there to watch the magic happen right before our eyes!

Silvio says that there is something special about the way you saute the onions. When they are done just right the sauce explodes with that special flavor!








I returned home with sore cut up lips from sucking the meat and sauce out of
every nook and cranny of those delectable little crabs!It was worth every bit of pain!








Thank you again Silvio and Rosalba...

Our Crabby Weekend

We went to the beach for the weekend.

The weather wasn't ideal but we managed...we even crabbed in the rain!

It was a short trip but we had a great time.

A big thank you to Silvio and Rosalba!

They made it all possible...

Silvio took us to his favorite crabbing spot!

Everyone had the same idea as we did...

Sivio and Rosalba cooked us a magnificent dinner of Linguini with Crab Sauce!

Caponatina or Capponata: This very traditional, Sicilian dish is most often served as an appetizer but also makes the perfect quick and casual meal during the hot summer months.Serve it with crusty bread, fresh vegetables, olives, and assorted regional cheeses. Try it "bruschetta style" on toast points or toppped over hot pasta. It's delicious and unexpected, and a valuable time saver too. Once prepared, caponatina will stand up to two weeks in the refigerator so it is ready-made to serve the unexpected company or at impromptu gatherings. Caponatina can als be served as a unique and creative side dish at any meal. Oh So Good!

My boys searched the beach for treasures...

***Bulletin***...we didn't strike it rich this weekend!

The ocean is just gorgeous...we love being there.

Being there really helps us regroup and feel refreshed.

Until next weekend!..................
