What To Do With Cheap Lobster: Make Lobster Thermidor A La Julia Child [Recipe]

Believe it or not – I do eat homemade meals.  While I’m usual the only one around to cook, every now and then – someone takes pity on me and treats me to some of their home cooking.  Recently, my father volunteered for the job.  This past week, he whipped up some Lobster Thermidor based …
