Crayfish Party

In Sweden there is a time of year when people enjoy crayfish parties (I presume that this ties in with crayfish season - link in title above). Well, K - with her new-found love of nearly all things seafood - has decided that *we* need a crayfish party. She sites being homesick, wanting to be more Swedish, and tradition but I know that she just wants an excuse to stuff her face full of mini-lobsters :) In order to prepare for this we went to IKEA twice (yes *TWICE*) to pick up packs of crayfish and all the other decorations, bibs and accessories in order to make our party genuine. There was only one hitch - we had to empty our freezer of just about everything else in order to fit the crayfish in... Party is this weekend - will let you know how it goes.

Might not be traditional but crayfish go really well with chilli and lime...

We're planing a kraft skiva for next weekend :) My dad is brining some snaps from Sweden to go with the crawdads (we call them crayfish or crawdads over here depending on region)
