Hi kids, This year Lobsterfest was a little different. Lobsters were not as plentyful as past years so availability was down and the price spiraled up. As a result, turn out for Lobsterfest 97 was the lowest this decade. On the up side, traffic was down and parking was available everywhere! Even Bar Harbour. The weather was the best I've experienced visiting Maine in 30 + years. We bought sun screen and baseball style caps to protect us from the sun! Shorts and a tee shirt on top of Cadilac Moutain
1\4 lb. fresh cooked crabmeat(Pectic Seafood is best)
1\2 lb. cream cheese
1 tsp. garlic powder (or to your taste)
Mash together with a fork and stir completely
apply to Pepperidge Farm Butter Thins Crackers or your favorite cracker,
For imediate consumption, use equal parts crab and cream cheese
This years winner in two catagories: BEST NEW RECIPE and BEST RECIPE OF THE YEAR goes to Brian's Lobster Salad
