Idle thought

When served with lobster, why is melted butter called "drawn" butter?

Drawn butter is actually a sauce. Melted butter is just melted butter.

Steve, Too many idle thoughts about butter and not enough about lobster. Drop me a line and so we can get served lobster someplace. Butter will follow. JCG

Jon, I'm tempted to paraphrase Rick in Casablanca: "Of all the blogs in the blogosphere, you walk into mine."

E-mail follows.
