Lobster Boat

[Shortstop]

I swam under our dock last week, about 12' deep, there had to be a 2-3 foot pile of mussel shells open piled near a post bottom. The top of the post sits a few inches above the water, but hidden under the dock. A mink, I assume, must collect them and sit there eating alllll day. Now that I think of it, we've been missing snacks and a few salt shakers ???

Mink are fussy eaters. They can't eat mussel's without crackers and salt. So it doesn't surprise me that they took the snacks and salt shakers.

They really prefer smoked sweet paprika on the mussels instead of salt, but it's hard for them to find.

We had guests in from Gemany a few weeks back and we flagged down the lobster boat and grabbed a few. It was much better than loading everyone in the boat and going shopping.

It was one of the highlights of our guests trip, they still can't believe that in America they bring lobsters right to the dock.

Great lake service, now we need a beer boat!

If there was a beer and pizza boat, it would be huge!

No, it'd probably still have to be a smallish boat so that it could get into all the coves and stuff. Even a small boat could carry a LOT of pizza and beer...

We taught ourselves to make pizza and on any pizza night on the island, we can make upwards of 15 pies to feed the guests. Last night we made straight up cheese, pepperoni, bbq chicken, buffalo chicken, taco (the all time favorite of the kids) and a breakfast one for this morning.

We bought the stones and supplies at a restaurant supply store and make a whole event out of it. Everyone gets a job (including drink re-fillers for the adults ). You start the dough in the am, and by evening you start the pizzas.

We always have too much and make the kids deliver to the island neighbors. IM me and I will tell you how, its easy and you are an island hero.

Whats in the taco pizza? Sounds super yummy.

Ever cook one on your grill? Have to use thin crust but it can be pretty yummy too. I have a stone I use when I make mine, it makes all the difference.
