Cooking instruction summary:

In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients except coconut oil and Fisher Nuts. Stir until the mixture holds together and can be formed into balls.Heat a skillet over medium low heat. Add coconut oil and heat.Begin forming the crab meat mixture into 2 inch balls, then gently press each ball into a thick patty. Press a spoonful of chopped Fisher walnuts into the top and bottom of each patty.Place the crab cakes carefully in the heated pan, using your fingers or the back of a spoon to secure any pieces that may have fallen off. Cook on each side for 3-4 minutes, until a nice, golden crust has formed.(Note, without as much fat and filler, these crabcakes do have to have a little more care.

Food Joke

Three ladies were discussing the travails of getting older. One said, "Sometimes I catch myself with a jar of mayonnaise in my hand, while standing in front of the refrigerator, and I can't remember whether I need to put it away, or start making a sandwich." The second lady chimed in with, "Yes, sometimes I find myself on the landing of the stairs and can't remember whether I was on my way up or on my way down." The third one responded, " Well, ladies, I'm glad I don't have that problem. Knock on wood," as she rapped her knuckles on the table, and then said, "That must be the door, I'll get it!"
