This weekend we partook of a true Virginia delicacy: oysters on the half shell. We like them raw with cocktail sauce. House of Deals is our unique hardware store in Onancock, where Miss Rosalie has them 50 for $13. They're from the 'seaside,' rather than the Chesapeake Bay, which means they're nice and salty.
I'm not as big a fan, but the muskrat is also in (2 for $7). Have you ever seen a place where you can get wallpaper, nails and fresh local eggs? House of Deals has it all!

They were Seaside oysters from the Chincoteague area. We carried them from Virginia to Albany, NY, to Saratoga, to Ballston Spa for my dad's 70th. His verdict: "Deee-licious-o"!!! Doesn't get better than that.
