Last night, we all headed to The Freezer, an open-air Tiki bar and restaurant in Homosassa, for some seriously spectacular seafood. I had an enormous serving of seasoned, buttery shrimp, and Kendrick and my dad shared that plate of snow crab legs and whole blue crabs, above (which was about $18 total). Check out the mallets that they provide to help you smash out the meat.

Sugared cranberries are one of my favorite DIY gift solutions when you have a lot of people on your list, and not a whole lot of money to spend. They’re beautiful to look at, taste great, and can be packaged in a variety of attractive ways (I like placing a couple of handfuls in clear plastic bags and securing the bag shut with a gold ribbon). I make batches and batches every holiday season and leave the extras sitting in bowls around my apartment to have something for guests to snack on. Watch the video here.
What you need:
1 bag cranberries
2 cups granulated sugar

When I was a little girl, I thought that this vintage fortune-teller, which sits in Eddie & Sharyn’s living room, was both incredibly cool and paralyzingly scary.
