    Preparing the lobster:

    Drop lobsters in pot and boil for 3 minutes. When finished cooking, remove lobsters from pot.
    Twist off the two front claws where they join the body.
    Using the back of a knife, crack the claws open and remove meat from tail and body and cut in half lengthwise.
    Season lobster with Old Bay, thyme and crushed red pepper.
    Preparing the sauce:
    Heat olive oil in large pot. Saute onions over medium heat until translucent, approximately 4 minutes.
    Add garlic and saute another minute, add wine and sherry, salt and pepper.
    Add lobster. Bring to boil, cook for 4 minutes.
    Remove lobster meat from sauce and set aside, cook another 4 minutes.
    Add cream and bring to a boil for 7 minutes. Strain sauce and add liquid back to the pan. Add spinach and tomatoes and butter and bring to a boil.
    Add lobster to reheat.
    Preparing Lobster Spaghetti entree: Partly coat pasta with sauce, transfer to large bowl (or individual dishes), top with lobster and remaining sauce.
