Crayfish

Neil was given the granddaddy of all crayfish from a friend this weekend. He was caught near Stewart Island and "apparently" was a small one compared to some they were catching. So after cooking it in the shed (cause I can't stand the smell) he settled in for a nice snack. Then Ethan came along...

Dad, whats that? A crayfish, do you want some? Nope.

Dad, why are you breaking its leg? To get the meat, do you want some? Nope.

Are those it's eyes? Yep, do you want some? Nope.

Knock, knock its skin is hard. Yep, do you want some? Nope.
And on it went until the "skin" was a pile of debris on the plate..... and he didn't try any LOL.

It was like deja vu for a day many years ago...
My god daughter Stephanie aged 3 watching a much younger Neil eat crayfish.

And she tried some too, loved it and helped Neil eat a whole crayfish.
I'm sure by the time my kids are grown they will love crayfish as much as Neil does!
