rolly, polly fish heads...lol Okay so maybe they didn't roll, but there were definite fish heads involved in the aftermath of the deep sea fishing trip. It took the three of us (Tom, Dad, myself) over 6 hours to do all the clean up and prep necessary so the fish are edible! Tom did most of the cutting clean up (removing the bad "fishy" veins), I handled the canning of the tuna (funny, since it is in jars, not cans), and dad cleaned up all the reels, poles, and made sure we didn't screw up any of the goods! It was definitely a team effort. When we finished at 3:30, Tom and I were ready to rest! Boy is clean up exhausting!!! Although, fun to go through the process and see all it takes. I can now see why fish are so expensive to buy...it isn't like you can just catch them and call it good. It is a LOT of work! But now we have TONS of fresh Albacore, ready to eat...yum!
To relax Tom and I had a fantastic dinner at Black Angus (no fish) lol It really is amazing...I have been tired and exhausted from this weekend and from the day's fishing labors, but just sitting there, having a nice dinner, restored my soul I think. It even made work a bit more bearable. :)
OH! And sweet Mr. Sir got me a new gadget for my pink handcuffs! I keep losing the little key, so he bought me this ZAK tool that matches the cuffs and will make it easier to find and use the key! :) It was a great little surprise :)
As for tonight, we had planned to just relax and enjoy more "us" time, but alas, the poor boy forgot it was his mother's birthday! So, instead we will be heading over there and enjoying some dinner and "family" time lol perhaps we'll get our time on Thursday! :D
Lucky-in-Love,
Amy :)
lol! Only you would need Tom to buy you something for your handcuffs! lol I have to say that your title made me throw up a little in my mouth... ;) Icky, stinky, yucky fish! bleh! :D
ReplyDeleteLOL I can't blame you...seeing them bothered me a bit, but all the cutting and cleaning didn't bother me at all! And i'm pretty sure eating them will be a cinch ;)
