Tyler though it would be cool to get a crab. Jessica didn't really want a crab but humored Tyler.
So we got a crab to put in our fish tank and there it lived.
It sulked in his home like a pedifile from Child Protective Services. It sulked and sulked and sulked. It only came out to eat. So we decided to call it
Shelob. Soon we decided that Shelob was a creepy little crab and we did NOT like it.
One day, I did not see the crab come out of it's lair for a while and then I looked on the FILTER!!! It was perched on top of it and was too close to the lid and too close to getting out for my comfort. It sat up there for days until one day, it was gone and it left behind a crunchy outer shell replica of itself. That's when I told Tyler that crabs shed their exoskeleton. This made us like him even less. Then, just yesterday, I find him perched up on my tank separator! Nasty Nasty Nasty!



I don't think I like him very much. Good thing we have a lid so I wont accidentally crunch him as I walk to the kitchen...Words of advise, the African dwarf frogs are so much cooler.
Also! Here is Tyler and I. We found the stairway to heaven. Yup! All the way up.

AND! Here is Ann and I eating Nutella strait from the jar. Mmmmm.

Also! This is our pot of lemon brown sugar. We boiled it so we could make homewade wax. We must have not boiled it for very long because it didn't really work.

And it took forever to boil

All in All, don't buy a pet crab and don't try to make your own wax. DO eat Nutella

Yeah nutella!! I like the crab, despite how creepy he is... Oh, and where is this "Stairway to Heaven?"
I LOVE Nutella! I tried to introduce it to the family when we were there over the holidays, and no one really seemed impressed. I am glad you guys like it. It is amazing on strawberries!
Ew, that crab did look gross. Don't they normally have shells on their backs? Otherwise, they're just like any other disgusting bug.
And I didn't know you could make wax out of sugar. I thought only bees make wax. And ears. I learned something new every time I read your blog!
Hey Jessica, we had a fishtank once and got a crab for it. One day we found pieces of crab on the floor by the fishtank. The crab had crawled out of the tank and the cat got him. And we had a lid on it too. So beware - those crabs can weasel their way out. Listen for the crunch sound when you walk in the room.
