    My mother was 100 lbs soaking wet, but MAN could she eat. There was a steamed shrimp buffet on the other side of the city.

    Family rules: We were there for shrimp, if you a little salad that’s ok, but stay away from the bread and the desserts, you can get those anywhere. You’d best eat at least three plates full

    We’d eat and eat and eat and eat, then take a little break, then eat some more. Mom was skinny; dad was normal-sized, and I was a little chubby. OMG did we put away some shrimp.
