I’m not sure how good it would be with salmon. Trout, I’ve never had. We usually use cod or perch and it turns out pretty good; you just have to fit the cooking time to the fish.

My cousin sent me this recipe but, since I don’t care for most of the ingredients, I’ve actually never tried it. A different kind of fish taco. Your’s sounds MUCH better, Jamestown! First time I’ve even considered making one.

My cousin has a number of parrots, like the one on her shoulder. For a living, she wrote and edited movie scripts. Given that she lives on a small island off Miami, I ran out one October and collected the leaves falling off the trees and sent her a box of autumn.

Salmon and Trout are oily but mild.

I once purchased something on Ebay around Christmas time, and the seller included a huge spray of fragrant New England evergreen boughs in the box. It was really lovely - and Memorable!.

Grilled toast, melted cheddar (liverwurst cold), lettuce, tomato, mustard and a little mayo.

“liverwurst sandwich”

Only if it is Oscar Meyer and Miracle Whip. Comfort food.

Tonight I went for bean burrito, Lent. Sometimes I behave.

Fish Tacos seem to be big in Baja California, and our California, too.:

Thanks. We have a big one nearby; there’s just so much to look at and buy, I’ve never really scrutinized the fish section.

I can still find salmon and swordfish there, though at $11 a pound, and that’s the sale price.

Yeah, as much as I love it here I don’t care for the clannishness. That’s not very Christlike, but luckily most people here go to church. So it’s not as bad as it could be.

Squid, cut into 2 by 3 inch pieces. Scored. When you coouk it they clump up like clumps od grapes. Add Black bean garlic sauce and enjoy. Just don’t cook the squid to long as it will get rubbery.

Sorry, I have to brag. I managed to make some French bread today that was similar to the ones i used to get at Albertson’s in California. Probably similar to other grocery store French bread. Big and fluffy and soft., With the chewy crust. But since I live fairly far from the grocery store, I wanted to be able to make it myself. Plus, it’s the challenge of it! I made two loaves that were fairly dense and then the next two were marvelous :-) now, if I could just narrow down which of the changes I made were the right ones.

No, I’m in Tennessee. Texas wasn’t even on the list of relocation places. Too many illegals. And too much arrogance by some of the people.

To me, if eating seafood instead of "meat" is supposed to be some kind of fasting or deprivation, it kind of loses the whole point. My Mom grew up in New Orleans where there is an endless variety of delicious choices of seafood. She says her mom would often serve canned peas and hard boiled eggs for dinner (YUK!) during Lent - which WOULD BE a sacrifice for me.

I do NOT recommend this but, if I'm not around, my husband makes himself canned baked beans with scrambled eggs mixed together for dinner (YUKx2!).

I have a recipe for quiche that uses a store bought pie crust, 2 cups half and half, 2 cups shredded swiss cheese, 1 envelope Knorr vegetable soup mix, one 10 oz. box frozen spinach that you thaw and squeeze all the water out of it and 3 eggs, lightly beaten. Mixed together and pour into the pie crust and bake at 375 for 45-50 minutes. Works extra well if you add in cooked bacon or ham, though some cooked shrimp would be good, too.
