Add tomato sauce, water, butter and Old Bay Spice and bring to a boil. Stir in grits and allow to simmer about fifteen to twenty minutes until grits are tender. Stir in cream. Turn off heat. For the Crab: Melt butter in small frying pan. Add pepper (or pimentos), celery, and Old Bay Spice and sauté until celery is tender crisp. In mixing bowl, mix crab, capers and lemon. When peppers and celery are done, add to crab mixture. For the Crab and Grits: Stir crab mixture into grits. This will keep warm for at least one hour off the heat.
