[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 526436, member: 3388"] : Star, :rofl: Thanks! I know I can always count on you for a bit of comic relief! Luckily, my morning coffee is long gone! Until last summer, "home" was a half mile from the ocean. There is a great seafood market in town, it's been there for years, (owned by the same family who also owns several large fishing boats), and if you blink, you'll have already passed it. The only advertising it's ever had is a bright red, now very faded, picture of a lobster on it's roof. The seafood is the best ever!! The prices were extremely reasonable all year except during the summer months, tourist season. However, if the owner knew you, you always got the freshest fish available and could even keep a running tab that you could pay whenever - So hard to believe in today's world. Anyway, I used to buy haddock at least once a week, sometimes more. No matter how I cooked it, it was delicious! In the fall, the scallops were wonderful... I love just about any kind of salt water fish and shrimp, scallops, and crab. I used to love lobster but after cooking it for a family gathering when I was pregnant with difficult child 2, I got so sick from the smell, that I've never been able to eat it again. Just thinking about all that great seafood is making me homesick... OK, I'm not going to hog this thread. It's just that it's been way too long since I've had really fresh seafood... SFR [/QUOTE]
