Yesterday, I said to Michael that I wanted to invite him to the new Touch of Italy in Lewes. It just opened up on the 26th. How could he not agree to this invitation? Irresistible, I know. He was going to be my guinea pig. I did not want to eat anything. I have been eating too much and with the Holidays upon us, I needed to restrain myself a bit. The new Touch of Italy is located at 101 Second Street, Lewes, Delaware. Tel. 302-827-2730. The website for Touch of Italy is www.touchofitalyde.com. The residents in Lewes must be thrilled. Second Street has so many varied restaurants; for all tastes. We have been watching that corner of Second St. and Savannah Rd. for months. Now I was about to enter this Salumeria, Pasticceria and Trattoria. Salumi is Italian for meats that are cured. So, it is a

How could you not start thinking about crabs? Not just crabmeat, but sitting down and picking crabs. Getting messy and full of Old Bay Seasoning. I wrote yesterday about how gorgeous it was here at the Delaware Beaches. I wanted crabs for dinner. Lazy Susans just opened up last week for the season. They have been in business since 1984. It is a true crab house. Their location is 18289 Coastal Highway (Rt.1), Lewes, Delaware. Tel. 302-645-5115. Just in case you do not eat crabs, Lazy Susans also have other food items on their menu like steamed shrimp, BBQ clams, oysters in season, fried fish, chicken, oyster, shrimp and seafood baskets, flounder, sandwiches, soups and salads. Great corn in season, as well as specials every week. The restaurant is very affordable, has a full bar, and a kids menu is available. Me, I only eat the crabs and maybe some corn. Last night as I was coming inside the restaurant I looked around to find out that it is still early in the season, so tables were pretty open. I chose a picnic table, covered in the brown paper, always present in a crab house. Perfect for cleaning the mess afterwards. Lazy Susans has another dining area in the back of the restaurant that is very open and a bar is located there, as well. We started with crabby deviled eggs and they were very good. It was a good balance between the crab and the egg. Sometimes the filling can get too heavy either way, but last night they were perfect. To me, there is nothing better than a blue crab; I mean a true blue crab. I have eaten crabs from other parts but there is that sweetness of the Delmarva crab that is so delicate and tasty. I then dip the crabmeat in vinegar and the combination is great. When my sons were young, I made sure that they learned to eat crabs at a very early age. My oldest was an expert by the age of 3. I remember him sitting in his high chair at the Crab Claw in St. Michaels, in Maryland, and people would stop to watch him pick crabs. I actually showed him so that I would not have to be picking them for him. A little selfish on my part but, both of them have been big fans of crab picking ever since. The crabs at Lazy Susans were mediums. As the season progresses, the crabs also get bigger and depending how the season goes, they get more expensive, as well. These mediums were heavy, which is the way you want them; very sweet also. The mustard is found as you open the crab. I always thought it was the fat. But, I found out that it is not. It is actually the crab's hepatopancreas. What is it? It is a main component of the crab's digestive system. The hepatopancreas is a gland located on both sides of the mid gut in the main body cavity. It functions as both liver and pancreas. The

For the ones that love, promote and are still discovering Rehoboth Beach, like me, the Rehoboth Beach Museum give us a starting point to show our guests, families and friends that are visiting Rehoboth Beach, how far this town has come. The Museum was opened to the public in 2007 with a lot of help from the local community. You are experiencing the Rehoboth of now, but how was the Rehoboth of yesterday? Dive into the local history of the town. For example, both the Rehoboth Museum and the Rehoboth Beach Historical Society call the Old Ice House, home. Old Ice House? Yes, the history is all there. Then, you will realize why Rehoboth Beach, even though it is a year-round resort, it is also called the Nation's Summer Capital. The Rehoboth Museum is a small museum, but don't let that fool you. It is packed with activities, exhibits, celebrations, and programs for all ages. Nancy Alexander is the Director. The Rehoboth Museum is located at 511 Rehoboth Ave., Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971. Tel. 302-227-7310. Website? www.rehobothbeachmuseum.org. There is plenty of parking available; handicap access, as well. It is in the same complex where the Visitors' Center and the Rehoboth Beach Chamber of Commerce are located. Can't miss it; right by the roundabout. [caption id=
