We Ate At The Crab Trap Earlier Today

I took my twin brother Don for lunch today.

Our meal was fantastic (as usual) and our server (Stacy) was outstanding.

Don loves the stuffed flounder with crab meat, along with stewed tomatoes and potatoes.

Have You Noticed

We are living in times whereby unfounded rumors spread like wildfire.

For example, the legendary Cathy Burke, owner if the iconic Atlantic City Irish Pub has been at the receiving and of nasty rumors that she is closing or selling.

Those rumors have also continued to persist. Let me make this perfectly clear as well… The Irish pub is not closing and it’s not for sale.
