Doing great! How about you and the Mrs?

Here is a great recipe native to the great state of VA:

Seafood Norfolk

1 Pound Jumbo Lump Blue Crab Meat
10-12 Medium or Large Shrimp, Cooked and Deveined (Optional)
1/3-Cup Butter or Margarine
6 ounces of Smithfield Country Ham cut into small cubes or squares
3 chopped shallots
6-7 oz can of drained sliced mushrooms
1/3 cup cold Chablis or Chardonnay

In a large dry frying pan fry the country ham until lightly browned. Remove from pan and drain. Add the butter to the pan and begin to fry the shallots. When the shallots appear to be nearly cooked add the crab, shrimp, and mushrooms. Add more butter to the pan if necessary. Sauté the seafood and mushrooms for 1-3 minutes. Add the cooked ham and wine and sauté for 2 more minutes. You can serve the dish as it is or as an option put the entire mixture in a Corning Ware baking dish and broil for 5 minutes. Serve with rice pilaf or wild rice, string beans and the wine you used to cook with.

What I miss about my fried chicken recipe is having it cut up "country style" with a wish bone. When I used to be able to have any butcher in any grocery do it for me, no problem. But now, they say they don't know what I am talking about. Sigh
