she gave me crabs?





so i'm back home now, in smoggy hazy hilarious shanghai. most bizarre and sweet, my ayi came by on monday night with some Real Live Hairy Crabs! i think i must have looked horrified and confused, because she made a big show of putting them on the counter and letting me watch them do their creepy walk around. then she put them in a pot and boiled them, and then left me to eat them?

the thing is, i'm down with crabs, i like them in restaurants, with ginger and garlic, red and delicious. i just can't deal with eating anything that was previously walking around my apartment. you know?
