Good Morning @figmentfan423

Thank you and you too

 

[Figgy1]

Do they at least have nice voices?

Yes me not so much

 

[Mr Ferret 75]

Thank you--never heard of that expression before. And the fish I picked out for Figgy were not imitation--they were all the fish as labelled, just either frozen or canned.

Just wondering what you would call someone who works at the fish counter in your local market/shop. May be a regional thing.

Guilty. Not proud but guilty. Now I'm fall and winter behind.

Santa grants exceptions for those that had to move between trips

Well, I guess that's the thing--maybe in certain places they use that term. In my supermarket, there's a guy behind the fish counter, but I always thought of him as "the guy behind the fish counter". (This must show my lack of proper upbringing . .. )

Properly bought fish should have nothing on it, have a slight ocean scent not a fishy smell, be firm, have bright clear eyes and properly wrapped by a monger and cooked within 24 hours.

 

[Figgy1]

Fingers crossed.

Who let you out of your cage at this hour of the morning

I thought you were going to answer " Dave" or something similar.

All the fish i get straight from the ocean have a fishy smell. I agree about the eyes though.

Been hanging out with cousin Finn?

Nah he would be on the bubbly or whisky. And i can't get a grey goose slushy here.

Vegan?

I thought my dh was going try cry when he found out Ellen's was closing. Sometimes if it was too hot for him and it was day 4+ of the boys going commando(not what you think @Mr Ferret 88) he'd ride it back to back

Spoiler

I thought the same thing too

Agreed. Fresh or old, they smell like fish, and that makes me nauseous.

Vegan?

I make 2 batches one vegan and one not.

Magical cookie bar, right? Do you use condensed coconut milk in it?

When I can get it if not I make my own with canned coconut milk(full fat). Sometimes with just sugar and vanilla and sometimes with stevia, vanilla and a bit of xantham depending on who's going to be eating them
