Ryan and I celebrated our 9 year wedding anniversary the weekend before the 4th of July by indulging ourselves and the kids in a lobster lunch. We had fun by going to the 99 Ranch Market in Irvine and picking out a live Maine Lobster from the tank. The butcher let the kids check out the live lobster over a bed of crushed ice before taking him away. The kids didn't really realize it but we had the butcher steam the lobster and trim it for us. The lobster was 4lbs and $28.00! Can't get this deal at a restaurant. We made some drawn butter at home and ate a perfectly steamed lobster. We all had fun on our little adventure. The kids were both eager to try lobster, but when it came down to it neither of them wanted a bite. The lobster was so filling and rich that I don't think Ryan and I will be ordering any lobster for a couple of more years. It was delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We were were so full we couldn't finish it.
