Under “Every dark cloud has a silver lining” heading.

When they close all the restaurants what happens to the premium lobsters usually reserved for their kitchens?

Girlfriends birthday today.  All the restaurants are closed.  Went to the Market Basket in Plymouth since my best option was to get a couple of lobsters for her birthday dinner.

I asked the woman at the counter for two lobsters, pound and a half each.  “We’re out”, she said. (Damn!)   “Well, do you have any lobsters?”

“Yes, two and a half pounds and up”.
“Up?”

“We have a lot of five pounders if you want them?”

“Oh, and the price is $6.99 a pound”.

Next problem, the regular pot we use was too small, we had to cook them sequentially.

And Corn, I forgot to mention Florida Corn.
