Remember when I lived in Maryland for a year and lost tons of money on a cross country move following a dream that failed and fell in love with Crab Cakes?!
Well, my crabs are back…
and I’m happy about it!
I found crab cakes 50% off a while back and froze them right away because I wasn’t sure when I’d make them.
Well, tonight was my night and they were amazing.
I served them up with roasted brussel sprouts and asparagus, mashed potatoes and homemade tartar sauce.
It almost made me want to move back to MD.
Almost.
Remember my hint with the stickers from last week???
No, unfortunately I am not doing an Ironman 
. Although, I’m sure I’m going to want to soon because…
I am headed to Galveston, TX this weekend to watch the Galveston Iron Man U.S. Professional Championship with Chocolate Milk Team Refuel and see them unveil their new ad with one of the racers!
I’m sure I”ll come back itching to tri, so I’m excited and nervous and should get some laundry done since I leave Friday! See ya later 
I think I saw the same vehicle in AZ! haha!
I live an hour away from Galveston and consider myself an expert on Galveston grub, since I’ve spent much if my summers there for all of my 32 years! Hit up the mosquito cafe for breakfast. Best breakfast on the island, and it’s small, out of the way, and quaint. I really hope you don’t hate the beach there, though. You’re a little spoiled in California w your beautiful beaches, but texans know how to have fun!! Hope it’s a great weekend!
Thanks!
I love your title! Hahahaha! Have fun on your trip!!!! I totally expect to see lots of pics in your posts! 😉
You will be coming close to me. I live about 45 minutes from Galveston!! How cool!!
Mmm, crab cakes! I live in the DC area but never have had a MD crab cake, kinda silly?! One of my girlfriends and I were talking last night about how much we’re craving them… Lump meat and hardly any filler, there’s no other way ;P
Wish I had me some crabs!
Yay! This is my hometown! Casey’s has some yummy crab cakes and you should hit up The Rum Shack after for drinks 🙂 Tell Mom and Dad hello for me 😀
lol that TITLE! You must get the weirdest searches hahaha
Ha! I do get a lot of weird (and inappropriate) searches 🙂
Gotta love hilarious searches.
I have friends doing this one too! Love Galveston, ran the marathon there in Feb (rainy & windy but still had a good time!) Have fun!! Can’t wait to see pics.
Yum! Maryland crab cakes are amazing. I had them when I was in Virginia in the Fall – AMAZING.
I live in Baltimore – not a huge fan of crabs but love anyting else made with them – crab cakes, crab dip, crab balls, crab pretzel – YUM
I have to call you out on the picture though, wasn’t that taken in DC, not Maryland? 🙂
Yeah, I figured it was obviously DC but it’s one of my favorites 🙂
you’ll be right next door to me!!! let me tell you, texas is AMAZING and i love it more than anywhere else…but it is HOTHOTHOT right now!
Those crab cakes look awesome! Seriously, yum!
How exciting. The ironman is the ultimate!
You know, I have never had a crab cake.
What a great opportunity!!!
Ahh, thats how I got sucked in! Wen’t to watch the boyfriend do New Orleans 70.3. One year and $250 later I’m registered for my first 70.3. Have a blast in Texas!
I know I was already considering it after the Endurance Live awards – those athletes are so inspiring! We’ll see…
being from Dallas, several of my friends will be racing in Galveston this weekend! should be a great time. I’m excited to see your coverage on here.
So cool that you get to travel for events like this….
I’ll be in galveston doing the Lonestar Ironman 70.3 this weekend!! And I will now be on a search for crab cakes… those look delicious!
Good luck!!! You’re a rock star 🙂
I live in Baltimore right now! Yay, MD pride! I only eat fresh crab cakes out in MD though. Once you have real MD crab cakes, other ones just aren’t the same!
So true!
I first had a crab cake at a wedding, and it was love at first bite.
Have a great trip – how exciting!
I had crabcakes last night for the first time in years, too, at a team dinner for work!!! SOOO DELICIOUS! Have fun in Texas!
Dinner twins 🙂
Wow sounds awesome. Have fun!
I lovvvveeeee crab cakes. Your news is so exciting! Have a fabulous weekend!
How fun! A coach from my old run club is competing in that race as a pro. I would love to do a 1/2 ironman some day, but the swim really freaks me out.
I need to get crabs.
Have a great trip!
Do a tri, they rock.
I miss crab cakes 🙁 It’s one of the seafood product I miss most since becoming a vegetarian! Your meal looks awesome!
I’m bad but, I still used to eat fish when I was veg. So, I guess I really wasn’t veg…
Should be a fun trip! And congrats on your crabs returning. LOL
