Yup, this is my favorite season alright, and for those that have any doubt we do have 4 seasons in Canada 
, Almost Winter, Winter, Still Winter and Road Construction... and with the beginning of the "Road Construction" season in my little neck of the woods, we have 2 thing that come INTO season - Cold Water Lobster, and Fiddleheads... I just finished the first feed of both to mark the beginning of this most favorite season 
The crazy thing is right now the Fiddleheads cost more per lb than the lobster... go figure, $4.99/lb for fresh Fiddleheads, and $3.99/lb for fresh Lobster... I am not complaining mind you I have seen Lobster as high as $12.00 on the wharf, and was happy to pay that price, I just couldn't buy as much. You might think I am nuts to say I was happy to pay a high price, but consider this, I buy from the fisherman and he is getting every penny of the money I spend, so yes I am happy no matter what the cost, I always spend the same amount of money roughly, it just means I get more or less depending on the price. Any time I can put my cash in the hand of the person responsible for catching, growing or making the goods I buy I am happy to pay the price! I do especially like my lobster guy though, I generally get to go out lobster fishing with him once or twice a season so that is a special treat I get for free
I suspect there is one member in here who will be just a bit jelous seeing this post, but I won't tell who that might be... wink wink nod nod...:d
