After an hour they should not have been swinging from the racks! That refrigerator must have been dead because when you put crabs in the fridge or ice them down they stop moving.

Too many to mention, but my favorite would probably be when my brothers and I were kids and we would sit around the picnic table in the summer eating crabs listening to her tell us stories of when she and her sister were Baltimore Colt cheerleaders. We were in awe and had no idea who the colts even were at our age. It wasn't until we got older that we realized that our mom was part of an oganization that was so famous. She's our Hero!

The man put the basket in the trunk of our Cutlass Supreme. When we got home, she popped the trunk and the crabs were everywhere! She collected them all, put them back in the crate and put them in the refrigerator. About an hour later, she opened the fridge and the crabs were swinging from the racks! One even jumped out and started to chase the dog! It was hilarious! I will never forget that day.

However, when I copied it into the email, I got so excited thinking about crabs, that I clicked send before putting my contact info in. Of course, as I was clicking the send button, my brain was saying, "Wait, wait, wait!!" but my hand ignored my brain as usual. I resent it with the info, so please disregard the first one.

You need to cut it down some. Take out some prepositional phrases or a sentence here or there... We have to keep it at the limit because we expect a lot of entries. After all, who doesn't want steamed crabs--especially if they're free?! : ) Wojo Erin,
