A Crab Boil Bunco


We had a good ole Crab Boil!
I should have had this item on my bucket list but I didn't know how important it is for everyone to experience one....But now I do!
And it's something I think you all should do too! I am so excited to recreate one for my own family.Tuesday Paula hosted  Bunco at her house,but she is in the middle of a kitchen remodel so she  decided to keep it simple with no plates or silverware and eat outside on picnic tables. So she covered the table with a new tablecloth, made a big pot of grub and we ate outside with our hands. And it was soooo fun! She served this amazing meal with a loaf of hot french bread that we chunked off and shared. Yep, you just grabbed a tator or piece of corn and if you wanted to roll it into the butter...roll away. I couldn't decide if I felt like a pirate or like I was living in this house in New England enjoying the daily catch...     
We had the nicest night sitting outside chatting and laughing as we always do with this amazing group of friends ! To finish the night with 'hands only' eating we each had a Drumstick for dessert! Perfect....

*Some exciting news!  Be looking soon for a guest post from our bunco babe *Holly* She is one of the funniest girls I have EVER met!
She is a regular visitor to my blog and I have tried forever to get her to have one of her own. I know I would read it EVERY single day!  But she has agreed to do a guest post on mine really soon. Trust me you will love her as much as we all do!
How about you? Anybody else want to treat us to a guest post? I think it would be so fun to have you all share at least one fun story! A great way to break into blogging without the pressure of having your very own.  
Just let me know when you are ready for your debut ! 

Wishing you Love and Giggles~

I have always wanted to make a crab boil...do you have a recipe? I hear it is super easy and simple to make, but then I always find too many variations online and decide not to make one. Hope all is well - heard you saw Wil last weekend...lucky him! :)

OK, so I've never even heard of a crab boil and I've been to Massachusetts, i.e., Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, etc. How did I miss that??? It sounds Fabulous and I'm going to Google it as soon as I finish this comment. Some people are just such clever hostesses...sounds like a very fun night. P.S. I love the guest post idea, I think I'll invite some of my friends to do the same.

I am far far from being a clever hostess-cooking for friends scares me.....but I decided to dive right in and if it wasn't good-heck, we could order pizza and have another drink!!!! I have to say it was the easiest meal I have ever made for guests and one of the best-at least that is what my bunco girls said. There was one complaint though-do not buy bargain drumsticks-the cones are soggy. Holly didn't care though...............
