The cure for Crabs



I started this blog to show the importance of letting it all go and to tell a story of what its like to go from caring about the hustle and bustle of everyday life to living a life of serving tables carefreely on the beach.  Did I actually get to live that beach bum life? In many ways yes. I mean who gets to get off work with their friends at 3 pm and go have oysters overlooking the gulf? I know I was blessed enough to say that I got to. Or what about your biggest worry of the day being "Beach or pool?" yep... I had to suffer through that dilema more than once.

Destin is a beautiful place. Full of beautiful people. If you only vacation here you dont know what this world in a beach town really is. When I say "A Beach Town" I really mean "THE beach town." You should go have Sushi at Harbor Docks, dance like a mad man at AJ's, have Irish Wakes at McGuires ( and the steak wow or salmon.. Ill never know which is better and I hate salmon usually) stuff your face with Helen Back Pizza. Have Burgers at Anglers and watch football on Sundays.. And above all you should walk waist deep out into the waters of the Gulf in Destin with a drink in hand and exhale knowing your life is beautiful and in this moment you are at peace... and very small on the food chain. I know I have loved every minute of it. Nothing beats a day on a boat at Crab Island and nothing ever will. Want crab legs? I am going to say The Crab Trap because I know first hand they are so good. ( What you should also know is that Crab Legs in Destin are the same as what you get frozen from any fish monger... crab legs are crab legs.)


I have been very busy lately becaue I gave up being a She Jimmy Buffett and went back to real world work.. now I only see the Gulf when Im driving from Fort Walton to home after a day of babysitting grown ups again. Isnt that sad? I guess being in your 30's you have a need to be a grown up and to live an 8-5 life no matter what your enviornment. I have decided to start a new blog but dont know what direction I want to go in yet. I think Im an OK story teller and if I entertain those that know me and even those that dont I feel like Ive provided myself some cheap therapy and a laugh for everyone else.

So when I start purging online again Ill let you know. For now Im content with the bingeing.
