Alton Brown, Chef and Psychic?

I have always been a fan of Alton Brown, he is one of my non sexual geek crushes. He has that goofy way about him and the recipes he offers are usually simple and tasty. So, the other day, I recorded an episode about Crabs and Crab Legs. It was easy,place fresh herbs on top and then you just wrap the legs in wet paper towels and saran wrap, finally microwave for two minutes and voila, steamed crab legs.

So easy in fact it struck me as something I could do, but sheesh, crab legs can be expensive. So, not expecting much, I took a ride to my local market and lo and behold, crab legs were on sale at 50% off!! A meal fit for a king and queen out of nowhere.

So I ask, how did Alton not only know that this would be so easy, but that the shellfish would be on sale at my favorite food store?? Kreskin of the Kitchen perhaps?

OH yum, I've just made crab lasagna myself...thank goodness, or else this post would make me mad with craving.

Mmmmm...Alton Brown. Another man on the "geek crush" list-but because of his thinning hair, he's way below John Roberts. Perhaps if Alton had a judge's robe...mmmm...that might just change my mind.

He had nothing to do with it. You made it happen. Haven't you watched 'The Secret'...law of attraction? LOL That stuff really works. :-)

As for Alton Brown... weird, but I just mentioned him at West of Mars today. Maybe you put the thought of him in my head?
