When life gives you crabs

I cheated last night!

No not on the hubster – shame on you for those thoughts!

Although if say Josh Duhamel, Ryan Reynolds, Matthew McConaughey, or Vin Diesel walked into my life I just may have to consider that.  What can I say – I like the bad boys!

Just ask the hubster, he would agree 🙂

But on that note no it wasn’t that kind of cheat.  I cheated with food.  And not the dessert kind.  Although if you have any of that handy that you would like to share I am open for deliveries today…mmkay!

   

You see the hubster came home with this a few days ago……

 

And then we acquired these Sunday night…….

 

Which left me with only one option.  I had to go get some of these 🙂

Okay so “math” trivia time:  okra + crabs + shrimp = ?

Anybody? – no Sabrina you can’t answer…..you are born and raised Louisiana that would be cheating!

Well if you guessed a big ol’ pot of cajun gumbo then you would be right 🙂

I know last night was Monday.  I know I am suppose to stick to my meatless Monday deal – but technically this doesn’t have any meat in it.  It has seafood.  Which is just to darn good to give up.  And it is fresh & local which makes it a-okay in my book!

Now for the cheating part – I used a packaged mix.  *Gasp*  I know right! 

But I did – Of course the Louisiana brand gumbo mix is made with wheat flour, and regular oil – no hydrogenated nothing here.  Unfortunately it is loaded with sodium 😦 

But it is Monday night, it is a scheduled run night, the hubster wasn’t home until 5:00, and I am just to darn busy/exhausted to even think about making a homemade gumbo.  So I cheated. 

It was yum!

Now does anyone know how I can get in touch with Josh Duahmel?
