SEAWEED.
That and some raw sea urchin eggs, and snails. Let's not forget the fish. Mmmm. We're trying to join the eat local movement.
Our house smells kind of like boiled snail shells and sea urchin entrails (bad) at the moment, but we're airing it out. Let the chocolate-coconut scented candles burn with all their might.
We'd like to thank Akiko for showing us the ways of harvesting the sea's bounty.
Seaweed hunting. Scissors work best, but Boppa likes the John Rambo effect.
First, the seaweed. Mister gave it a shot. He enjoyed it, but it was a bit too chewy for him. It made for the perfect greens to compliment our Dolly Varden dinner. Crunchy. And thanks to Amy for the beginner level chopsticks we used to help us feel authentic.
Okay, let's start at the beginning. Here's Boppa bringing back yet another pot roast pan full of fresh fish. (The pot roast pan is necessary to fend off marauding eagles. Caught fish must be stored inside, or else they become eagle snacks the moment you get three feet away.) One of these Dollys was the main dish of the evening.
Mama and Mister stay entertained in the car.
Gone are the days when Mister doesn't notice the camera.
Actually, Dollys have been the main dish now for 7 evenings, going on 8. We aren't sick of them yet. But hopefully we'll start catching some salmon. The previously mentioned rockfish only yielded enough flesh to be a mere appetizer to our southern themed Friday night dinner of ribs, deep fried rockfish, and Key Lime pie. Mmm. That was friday night. Then came the Saturday night mentioned above. Between the seaweed and the fish we didn't take in too many calories Saturday night. Thank goodness we were able to make up for it by eating 6 slices of Key Lime pie.
Thanks for letting us be part of Team Sea Bounty!
Clockwise: Mama, Akiko, Ms. Lee, Yuma, Paxson, Naho.
