Awwwwww. That means the world to me!!!!!!!!!!!!! : )
ooooops.
I am sorry.
Years ago when we lived in Charleston, SC we would go shrimping off East Bay Street...
We had 6 shrimp nets and we would join the locals on the old pier there..
they all had their own special type of bait they swore by , chicken necks etc, but I would use smoked pieces of liver...we would swop stories and had a great time..
after we got home again I would sprinkle BBQ smoke salt on the livers and put them back in a baggie and into the freezer until next time...
We pegged the bait onto our shrimp nets with ordinary wooden clothes pegs and the shrimp loved it because it was frozen the bait didn’t crumble and float away and the shrimp loved the smokey smell and taste...they swarmed the net like lemmings...
in no time we would have 100-200 shrimp..I would gut them right there and put them in a bucket of ice to take home the innards and heads I also took home for my vegetable garden...
I would save 1/2 cardboard milk cartons and put 50 shrimp in each one with water and put them in the freezer...there were usually at least 2 cartons and sometimes as many as 4...
When I wanted to make shrimp cocktail or cook them in a dish I just peeled off the outside milk carton and placed the big ice block in a big pot on low to melt..etc
This was 30+ years ago the area is built up now ...sorry :(

YOU WERE MISSED
At one time, they were also off NYC.
In colonial days, farmers used to feed lobsters to their hogs. OH THE HUMANITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
My grandmother used to tell me stories about when she was a girl and the beach party clam bakes ( which included lobsters too ) that they used to have. :-)
And besides...you're something "SPECIAL" !
” . . . To my astonishment, Hannity has been at his peak in this cycle. “
Not sure what you mean by this. But this has been on my mind: Last week Hannity radio was bashing Trump something awful and I couldn’t listen to it.
Yesterday Trump was on Hannity radio, 14 minutes, bottom of first hour IIRC. Very interesting - - left me with the impression Trump gave him a severe warning.
Trump recounted a story of how Sam Donaldson did something not nice about Trump. So Trump finished the interview with him nice enough - and never gave him another interview.
Hannity brought up a subject - something that Trump said about him that made him very angry - he would continue with in private. hmmmm Trump answer very smooth, just dripping with sweetness. oh oh - like Hannity was calling a candidate for POTUS to task, and planning to confront Trump in person about what he had said.
Really more even, as I relistened - Trump said something about Hannity’s 10 million listeners. Presuming Trump knew exactly what he was saying - an insult ! - because Hannity very quickly rejoined even before Trump finished his sentence, that he had 15 million listeners ! GO TRUMP !
John Dean worked for Nixon. Howard Dean is famous for the “I have a scream!” speech.
I can catch about 15 - 40 minutes at the top of his second hour. What I’ve heard on the days I could catch it were orders of magnitude better than anything he was doing during 2012. Sorry to hear that is not consistent throughout the program. I don’t listen much to the radio commentariat anymore. Not since 2012. They are 90% Pied Pipers for the Beltway GOP, while pretending otherwise.
Fish tacos.
Milk Cartons for freezing, shrimp guts for garden...Very clever!!!
You have no idea what your kind words mean to me!!!!
I have been so invested in Mr. Trump since June 16!!!!......and last night, Iowa, was such a shock!!
I was away today and at first I sulked....lol.....then felt somewhat better....
...and when I came home and watched his press conference, plus the rally....
I got the mojo back : )
And then I have the bonus of your encouraging words!!!
We have become fast friends...indeed!!!!!!
OH and smoked liver...great idea!
Yum! Fresh lobsters...a treat if not a delicacy in the midwest ~ tho there are increasing numbers of restaurants trying to offer fresh (or close to it) seafood :)
OH, I did not know that they fed lobsters to hogs!!! Feeding lobsters to hogs?!?!? That should have been a punishable offense ;)
Frozen solid..it can stand up to the cool water for a while..Just replace when it starts to get thawy..
I used a lot of pegs and bait...usually about 10-12..
Went once or twice a month...took just about a hour or so to get 100-200...
They just leaped into the net...
:)
Waited and tried again.
No problem purchasing.
I love that song!
Glad to hear that....I am YAY now, too :)
Now remember to always post morning, mid-day, or evening meal menu, when on a Rally Thread! :-)
