The crab were fresh from the Intercoastal Waterway. the recipe requires no sauces. It is full flavored and complements the fresh crab flavor.

Ms. Deen: Thank you so much for sending me your e mails. I love your recipes... and think you are absolutely wonderful. I think it is so admirable that you have continued to have such a close and great relationship with your two sons. I saw you on Oprah......go girl! A Canadian connection.

Congratulations on your attitude towards a newer way of life. I do not have diabetes; however I am hypoglycemic which means I cannot eat like cake with icing, or icecream. I adore sorbet, as it is not so sweet and leaves out. your questionaire about diabetes does not apply to us; however it is good for each of us to learn to live and enjoy diabetic meals. It is healthy, and time for all of us to change our habits. God bless you in your new lifestyle! Mary Anne Maxwell, RN

BEST EVER........................

Oops. Use this one instead. You can use Old Bay instead of cayenne. Tracy baked instead of fried for 20 minutes at 400 degrees. She then turned off the oven and let it sit for another 10 minutes.
