Front Porch Sittin' and Blue Crab Pickin'

My mama has been picking steamed blue crabs with her family since she was my age.  It's something that the family would get together and do in Richmond in the summer.  It's not as easy to get crabs in Durham as it was in Richmond but the family still tries to do it once a year, usually for grannie's birthday.  I stuck to nomming on the club crackers, but maybe next year I'll try my hands at some crab meat.


The fam!

Grandpa Lenny, grannie Anne, and uncle Ryan

The beautiful miss Olivia (she's been picking crabs on her own since she was 4!), Joy, dada, and mama.  Everyone has their game face on.

Crabs!  Crabbies go pinch pinch pinch pinch.  But not these crabbies...

Got my sippy cup, my bead necklaces, and my club cracker.  Nom nom nom.
