Well, tonight I am making lobster for my son's birthday dinner. I forgot to make the Tres Leches cake a day ahead, so I guess I'll be making that another time. Anyway, "Cooking a Maine Lobster Dinner" in Issue 13 really gave me the courage to tackle live lobsters. I made it once before, and it came out really well. The article says that lobsters have a primitive nervous system and don't feel pain...I hope that's true! I can't help but feel a little guilty about, ummm, you know, doing them in like that.
