WE HAVE ARRIVED....... As of last Tuesday we have been doing business at our new home, Oakes Farm Market. We can't tell you how gratifying it is to see all of our very loyal friends that have been with us for years and to meet all the new friends, the Oakes regulars, who are so excited that we are here.
This first week has been loaded with challenges, from no electricity and new scales we don't quite understand, to being phoneless for awhile. Thankfully, everyone has been incredibly understanding and helpful.
As promised we have lowered our prices almost across the board, in some cases that means several dollars less per pound. If you haven't had the chance to visit us yet I promise that you will be pleasantly surprised.

Barbecued Grouper With Sweet-Sour Grapefruit Sauce
Courtesy of customer Hank Blakely
Makes 4 Servings
Ingredients
4 grapefruit, unpeeled
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup minced green onion
1 tablespoon Asian chili sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 (6 ounce size) grouper filets, same thickness
1 cup grapefruit juice
Directions
1. Grate 1 grapefruit to obtain the zest.
2. Cut the grapefruits into 1-inch thick slices.
3. In a bowl, combine the grapefruit zest, grapefruit juice, sugar, green onion, chili sauce and salt; mix well. (Marinade can be covered and refrigerated for 8 hours before using.)
4. Prepare a medium-hot fire (about 450°) on a gas or charcoal grill. Place fish in a baking dish. Stir marinade; pour half over fish, turning to coat evenly. Cover fish and marinate in the refrigerator for 5 to 15 minutes.
5. Lay grapefruit slices in a tight, single layer directly on the grill rack. Place fish on top of grapefruit. Cover grill; cook 10 minutes before lifting the lid. If the fish does not flake when prodded with a fork, close lid and cook 2 minutes more.
6. Transfer fish to dinner plates; spoon remaining marinade over fish. Serve promptly.

· It takes approximately seven years for an American lobster to grow to one pound. Lobsters can grow up to 45 pounds!
· The lobster, which has remained relatively unchanged for nearly 100 million years, is one of the most interesting of all the creatures in the sea. It's built funny...the brain is in its throat, its nervous system is in its belly, it listens with its legs, it tastes with its feet, its teeth are in its stomach and its kidneys are in its head.
· Lobster is high in protein, has about 200 calories per six-ounce serving and contains important vitamins and minerals such as calcium, potassium and zinc.

· The real name of the Maine lobster is the American lobster. It's been nicknamed the Maine lobster because that is where most are caught in the United States.
· According to the National Fisheries Institute, the average American eats more than 15 pounds of seafood each year, consuming about 4.2 pounds of shrimp.
· The only true lobsters are marine and have a pair of enormous edible flat claws. There are two very similar species: the European lobster found on the Atlantic coast of Europe, Scandinavia and in the Mediterranean, and the American Lobster, found on the Atlantic coast of North America.
