Blackened Fish Sandwiches

My entire family has had a case of the blahs lately. No one wants to do anything. Cooking, cleaning, etc… are a chore right now. Usually they are a chore but for some reason right now it just seems worse. We are actually thinking about making a quick getaway with the family for a few…

Stuffed Cod and an Anniversary

Day 72: First today is Memorial Day. The day in the United States we honor the memory of those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. To those who served, are serving, and those who are no longer with us we say, “Thank you for your service.” Second happy anniversary to my…

Guinness Beer Battered Fish and Salt Potatoes
