My parents sort of invited themselves over for oysters tonight. Offered to pay half. If you’re a guest, even if family, you’re not paying half. Dad doesn’t eat them and mom isn’t sure if she likes them. I buy a bushel, should’ve bought half. We had fun but I have a [BLEEP] ton of oysters left. I think I’ll try something I’ve yet to do. I’ll shuck them rest in the morning and find a batter recipe and try frying the rest. Sounds good.

Side note..we used to always get Appalachacola (sp) oysters. These were harvested in TX. Nice salty flavor and I had to think of Ed O’Niel opening these jokers. “Bigen’s”. Every one was of pretty decent size. Definitely not disappointed. Plus this place sells by the pound. So I can get 30 lbs for a small gathering. And it’s closer to me than going to PVB and paying 95 for a bushel that’s hit or miss. Sorry Dan. Headed to San Jose from now on!
