Hi everyone! It appears that some restaurants in my neck of the beach are offering half price specials on Maine lobsters for the month of February only. Since it’s our Friday date night, hubs made reservations for dinner at one of the restaurants participating in this deal. It just happens to be one that we have been to before, is extremely close to us, and offers appetizers, two sides, and offers cracking of the lobsters at your request. The lobsters begin at two pounds each. We are going to try to order the largest they have. We love Maine lobsters!

Ohhh, lucky you! Are lobsters abundant this time of year? You will have an absolutely yummy dinner ! I have a mom friend here who says they go back to Maine each year as her family is from there. I said how lucky they were to go have excellent seafood on their trip - and you know what she said? They all hate seafood !

Do these lobsters get transported down to Florida from Maine? Seems weird to me so I'm wondering if I have this wrong.

@DianneN hmm seems weird why don’t they just sell lobster they get from the ocean in Florida? Does it taste different?

Are Maine lobsters better than New Hampshire lobsters? I hope you enjoy the largest lobster you can find! They are so delicious!

@nela13 They do seem to be pretty expensive depending where you get them. Fresh Maine lobsters vary in prices depending on size. Usually they cost around $35 per pound.

I've never had lobster and wanted to try it on the ship as it was an ongoing choice. Another gal there at first thought she could teach my how to eat it but then thought maybe she forgot so i never did give it a go. We reconnected with a couple that lives in the panhandle. They had invited us to come there to live years ago when it wasn't feasible but maybe we'll go there rather than tennessee as I've been thinking once we retire and pay things off here or maybe do like you and belle and use that for a winter abode.

@DianneN it would be nice if Michigan became our vacation place although I've no idea how the taxes are for two places it might be better just to move to fl and visit for months at a time here. Will have to see how it pans out. Pun sort of squeezed in there.
