Butter sure is better than margarine which is plastic food! My holistic doc said never never eat margarine! Ghee is just clarified butter which you would make by melting some then cooling it. The fat solids would rise and you could skim them off, then reheat and pour through cheesecloth. You're left with amazing buttery flavor without the fat to clog your gut. Now having told you that, you can see why I'll gladly spend $6 for a tub of it already clarified! It lasts a very long time because you need so much less of it on your toast or veggie. We still buy butter for cooking certain things (that need the fat) but I use a lot of ghee. For the lobster dipping this will be incredibly easier as each person needs about a 1/4 cup to dip in. I'm with you, though.... I'll never eat anything that resembles a giant cockroach!!! I'm having grilled shrimp and/or some seared cod with herbs.

The end of the Pats/Giants game was, as the kids would say CRAY-CRAY! (crazy, for you folks uninitiated in kidspeak) Looked like the Giants were playing Hot Potato on the already run out clock. We were on our feet shouting until the ball ran out of bounds. What a game. I hate the physicality of football but every game sucks me in bigtime. When it's close I get so into it my tummy hurts. Oy. So for the moment we're still undefeated. And our balls are fully inflated!!!
