dinner tonight

soft shell crabs dipped in butter, lemon juice, paprika and white pepper, then dredged in flour and broiled. couldn't decide between sliced cucumbers in rice vinegar 'n' sugar and tomatoes, purple onion 'n' fresh basil drizzled with balsamic vinegar, so had 'em both, along with some melon, followed by the fruit tart that we forgot to eat when calvin and cary were here for dessert. as good a way as any to start three days off from work.
