Seafood Withdraw

I am slowly getting used to my withdraw from seafood. My favorite fish store (EVER) has locked it's doors and I feel so abandoned and all alone. I am seriously craving tonight...I think I need to find a new dealer and get my fix!

Maybe crabmeat- then I can make my famous Boothbay Harbor Crab Cakes from Marjorie Standish's "Cooking Down East" cookbook. They are SO YUMMY!!! If you like crab cakes-give these a go.

Enjoy~
