This is (someone else's picture of) what I had for dinner last night:
For those, like me, who grew up in what is arguably not The South, it's a crawfish boil. You put corn, small red potatoes, cajun spices. crawfish and whatever the hell else (in our case, an onion and two heads of garlic) into a hugeass stockpot and let it boil. When it does that for a while, you strain it and dump it on some newspaper that you've already spread out on the table. Everyone stands around and eats it while drinking lots of beer.
I was totally apprehensive about this but wanted to be a good sport; it totally rocked.
I will be hosting one at the end of the summer, probably the first weekend in August. I'd like to try it with shrimp as well. Real life friends--mark your calendars, and let me know if you'd like an invite (they're going to be pretty)!

It was a good day.
