Low Country Boil

A favorite summer meal at my house is a "Low Country Boil" with shrimp or crab legs.  It's quick, easy and cooks in one pot!   Clean up is a breeze with just one pot to clean and clearing the table requires wadding everything up into one big newspaper ball.  After an afternoon around the pool, there is "nothin" finer-in all of Carolina, than a "Low Country Boil" at the Carson house.  This is a picture of the recent "Crab Leg Boil" with my son Ben (the Methodist Minister) and his beautiful wife Jenny.  They were home for the weekend to attend Ben's 10 year reunion with his high school class of 1999 and it was such a delight having them home but an added blessing was having so many of his high school buddies stopping by to visit too.  It's hard to believe that I'm old enough to have a son that was attending a 10 year class reunion but as the years have passed, I've realized that each year continues to bring rich blessings from God and that the future will be the same with so much to look forward too.  A "Low Country Boil," family time around the table, visits from long time friends...a blessing indeed!

I love the low maintenance meal idea, and would love to sit around that newspaper-covered table with you sometime! What fun.

Nice to see a new post from you. I always enjoy your take on your daily blessings!

Thanks Dawn and its great to have the time to blog. I have experienced some down time the last few days. It was also a blessing to catch up with your blog.

Are you coming to NC this fall? If so maybe you could come over for a "Low Country Boil"...that would be a blessing indeed!
