How many ways can you eat CLAMS???

I had such a blast in Manchester, NH.  Manchester is only about 30 minutes from Boston. 

I have not been back to Boston since I graduated.  I have not found a reason to go back. 

One of my best friends passed away suddenly three years ago.  The majority of people that I went to school with moved to other places.  So there was never any reason to go back until now.

I had to teach at CKC Manchester.  I had a great time.  The first thing I did when I landed was run to the Clam King.

I ordered fried whole clams and licked my fingers when they were all gone.

I then went to a local seafood bar and had everything that I could have ever wanted.

I had clams on the half shell.  I had oysters on the half shell.  I had  cherry stones on the half shell.  They were small and out of season, but they were good none the less. 

I had New England clam chowder. I had a clam roll, I had fried fish sandwich, I had it anyway I could get it.

I never realized how much I missed the whole fresh fish thing. 

It was a regular on a Saturday to go to Boston Fish Market at 6.00 am to get the first catch.

It was a great time. 

I am tired and going to spend some time with kids. 

until we meet again,

I do the same thing with shrimp when I'm on the coast. It's amazing how much better it is.
