I was able to pick up lobster meat ready to go. Do I buy a live lobster and cook it myself? Do I buy a lobster and have whoever I’m buying it from cook it for me? Do I even need a whole lobster? Would the tail be enough? Oh but what about just finding meat ready to go? And then what about where to get it… do I just go to the grocery store or do I find a fish market? You see… since I’m not a fan of seafood I clearly haven’t ever purchased lobster myself, forget the issue of preparing it! In the end I ventured into a local fish market, hoping for the best and hoping to not make a complete fool of myself. My biggest issue was figuring out what to do about the lobster meat. I wrote up my plan and made a list of what ingredients I needed to pick up… oh plus those needed for the special anniversary dessert which you’ll have to wait to see. The least I could do is make something special for him on our special day. The Mr is a big fan of seafood and I’m not, so we never eat it at home. Plus, I had a special occasion I really wanted to make it for… our 7th wedding anniversary! Making a pasta dish couldn’t possibly be that labor intensive. So I had just had a baby…I didn’t care, it wouldn’t stop me. I got this particular idea stuck in my head again and couldn’t let it slide. This year I had intended on making a lobster dish or two over the summer, but yeah… that didn’t happen.

I’m pretty sure last year I planned on making it once or twice but it never happened and eventually I forgot about it. This is another one of those recipes I’d been dreaming of making for quite some time.
