Like a kid in a candy shop, I'm waiting patiently

When we went to the seafood store last week my husband really wanted live crawfish. Unfortunately, we didn't realize they only have them on Fridays. My husband has really developed a taste for them and I know he was disappointed.
I went online and did a search for places to buy them and came up with several. I checked a few sites and found one that seemed like the best for what I want. With this outfit if you order by 5 pm you get our order the next day.
I got an e-mail earlier from UPS and when I clicked on the little map it showed exactly where the UPS truck is with my (his) package. The map updates automatically so I've been watching the truck get closer and closer. He is on the next road over from us, but it could be a while before he gets here. Country roads are far apart!
I can't wait to see the look on my husband's face when he sees the package!! He will be one happy camper and he deserves it!
I only ordered 10 pounds and I hope that is enough!

@AbbyGreenhill I like the red potatoes boiled with the crawfish, but only the potatoes.

I can't eat the spices. Just smelling the boil set my sinus off

Sounds delicious! I love lobster but haven't tried crawfish.

They are nothing like lobster - they really have no flavor except for what you cook them in.

Yes, I had more fun watching the truck make it's way here.

@AbbyGreenhill We tracked our son once (with his permission) and saw where he forgot something and had to go home again. That was pretty funny - to us at least!

That is awesome you could track your crawfish! Did you end up preparing crawfish for dinner?

They aren't for dinner, they are snacks for my husband. You would have to eat too many to make a meal out of them. The heads are only the size of a lima bean - a baby lima bean.

That is a lot of crawfish. I think I have only ever had one. I will have to check prices at the seafood shop here and maybe make etouffe or something with them.

Not a lot - it's all shell, you only eat the head. Probably less than a pound is what you eat out of 10 pounds.
