Mrs.E. just returned from grocery shopping. The market had just finished
filleting a fresh dolphin that was flown in from Hawaii and arrived this
afternoon. She brought me home a chunk.

Mahi-Mahi on the menu tonight, once I figure out how to cook it.

Swordfish for us........seafood will be the Friday Meal De Jour until
Easter for us..........Lent.


Ahhhh.... that must be it. My closet Catholic, Italian wife going back to
the old traditions.
She bought herself a lobster. Fasting is such a bitch.

I forgot when the rules were changed, but all through junior high and
high school in New Haven, fish was the entree on Fridays. Huge Catholic
population. Pretty good fish, too. Of course, up the hill in Amity, I'm
sure the fish was served on a special sauce.

Of course, I'm sure that your school had the best of everything,
including lunch served on fine china. This was probably an edict from
you.....SO much better than anyone else.....

Well, I was always thankful to the Catholics for the fish. I remember
well the "tasty" fishsticks, but, more often, we had baked cod and
sometimes salmon patties. School lunches, heavily subsidized, were about
35 cents in junior high and 75 cents in high school. Complete, hot
lunches every day. Plain food, but no junk food. Nothing fancy. In high
school, we'd sometimes sneak out and walk a long, long block to an
Italian deli for a sub. Doing so was "verboten," but one day we saw the
assistant principal there, ordering his sub. We promised not to tell and
he promised not to discipline us. Whew! :-

We had a Dairy Queen and a 7-11 less than 500 yards from the school,
plenty of woods inbetween to avoid getting caught and tobacco barns to
climb up in if you were being chased. The asst. prin, did not climb up
there to see who it was...

Yea, well at our school the asst. principal was out back smoking a
joint. We bribed him into paying us $1000 every quarter not tell report
him to the principal.
