What happens to the lobster in the tank?..........



I hope everyone gets a great laugh from our embarrasing moment at Red Lobster. We had just eaten a lovely dinner and Dylan went to look at those poor lobsters in the tank. He asked me, "how do they cook the lobster, mom." I decided to be honest and tell him that they boil the lobster in hot water and that some chefs claim that the lobster scream. Dylan looked at me and his eyes were huge. At that very moment, Mike appeared after paying the bill and Dylan shouted to his dad, "those poor lobsters get cooked in hot water and they scream. " Mike grabbed Dylan's hand and we were out of the restraunt quick. Of course, everyone waiting for a table was staring at us with their eyes wide open too. It was an adventure to arrive at Red Lobster. We had just got on the freeway and everything came to a complete standstill. Yes, we had to wait about an hour as an accident had occured just ahead of us. I captured a picture of the boys as we all waited. Thank heavens for DVD players. We never heard one complaint from Dylan and Tate took his afternoon nap. We saw Lifeflight come and go and as we finally passed the car it was amazing that anyone lived. The roof of the car was literally in the front seat. The lady in the car did survive and the paper said that a full recovery is expected........can we say MIRACLE.
