Six-Word Memoirs with SMITH Mag

My sister's cream of crab soup

Backstory

Everyone is our family loves to cook and each of us has some signature recipes. My sister's cream of crab soup is renown in the family and beyond for being so delicious. She uses five or six pounds of crab in each batch and we all fall on it like starving dogs. I could have also done a six word memoir on "my brother's crab and shrimp seviche." It was a hard decision deciding which one to use!
