F4F Returns: Citrus and Lobster Salad

Walking through my favorite up-scale supermarket last week, I noticed that lobsters were reasonably priced (relatively speaking, of course). I got to wondering, what can you do with these things this time of year? (I’m not from Maine, I don’t even know anybody from there; I guess you’d say I’m lobster-challenged.)
