The benefits of living in AK. Yum, King crab by the 10 lb box. One of Chris' co-workers said back when she first came here 25 years ago crab was so abundant it was brought to every party. She got so sick of it she wont' eat crab to this day. When she told us this, I couldn't imagine that would be possible. I LOVE crab. However, I am now sick of King Salmon and have started to wonder about getting sick of the things you love. Crab is not so cheap these days and we don't have an "in" so I don't think I need to worry. It's still a special meal when we break into one of those giant legs. One a piece just about fills us up!
