Photograph taken in November, 1909 shows three members of the Payro family being “photographed” by their cat.

"FP was a pain in the ass! But he was a kindly pain in the ass."
Something along those lines, OK?
Cream cheese and smoked salmon sounds way better.
But my grandbaby wouldn't know a pair of brogans if she saw them.

She’s thinking, how is that cat going to focus that camera without opposable thumbs?
Cream cheese lox and a slice of sweet red onion
Cream cheese and smoked salmon sounds way better.
Yeah, way better than lox:)
I grew up in hand me downs but at least they were my sisters. I got a new outfit once a year at Easter to wear to church. I did not like hand me downs.
Yes, sometimes I like the red onion too but it has to be so thin you could see through it.

I was thinking “Gee, he don’t smell too bad for a dead guy,” but that’ll work too.
all three... clean the darn keyboard
Man, and I just ate lunch.
Cute, although it was likely made to happen by smearing a little raw salmon on the camera, and having Kitty lick it off. Little-Miss-Frown Face reminds me of another time the smallest person in the photo serves to act as an impish contrarian. I’m thinking of the wedding for Prince William and Princess Kate. There they were, enraptured in their loving embrace of matrimony, when way at the bottom of the frame, this toddler looks up at them with the biggest scowl you could imagine, as if to say,”All this for a Wedding?”
I can work with that.
I don't think even Johnny has a palatable recipe... ;-)
"Cows", he answered.
"What does a cow say?", I asked.
"Moo", he brilliantly replied.
"And what do we get from cows?", I continued.
"McDonalds!", he proudly answered. ;o)

What do you use to mask the brassy taste?
smoked salmon vs. lox
Smoked salmon is a blanket term for any salmon: wild, farmed, fillet, steak, cured with hot or cold smoke.
Lox refers to salmon cured in a salt-sugar rub or brine (like gravlax). Nova is cured and then cold-smoked (unlike lox or gravlax). There's also hot-smoked salmon, which is cured, then fully cooked with heated wood smoke.
Now, to acknowledge the purists. Real, authentic lox is made from only the belly portion of the salmon. Yup, like pork, the belly of the fish is typically the richest, fattiest and most succulent portion. Cured and smoked, it's saltier and more...uh..."aromatic" than its milder non-belly counterpart, and if you're lucky enough to try it on a bagel with cream cheese, it's hard to go back.
When you buy lox anywhere other than an old-school appetizing counter, even if it's clearly labeled "lox," what you're almost certainly getting is simply smoked salmon. And frankly, that's fine by us.
