We went out with Rosie & Woody last night for dinner with the kids to a great Italian Bistro in Scottsdale.
Today, my Dad came home with 35 lbs of salmon from Alaska. (Every time I hear the words "Salmon from Alaska" I hear a jingle from a Minneapolis radio station that whenever you said the word "Alaska", they had a song they played that went, "Salmon from Alaska, Salmon from the sea, Salmon from Alaska made for you and me." The irony? I remember the song and not the DJ's. (I do remember that it was 99.9 WLOL...I think from somewhere in the late 1980's or early 1990's.)
The salmon in Dad's suitcase that would not fit in the cooler above.
The total haul in the cooler.
Dad near the freezer that is now full to the brim!!!
You'd never guess what we had for dinner tonight??? SALMON!
I seared it with sesame seeds on the non-skin side for 3 minutes and then baked it for 10 minutes at 350 F in the oven. MMM....good. The fish came right off the skin.
Next with the suitcase salmon? Salmon ceviche.
I also bought this pattern today. Isn't it gorgeous??? I am going to make it in my dark green laceweight yarn from the Knitter's Tea Swap this past summer that I got from Heather.

Jeesh, goof. Brian would have helped you with the motor.
Wow - that's a lot of salmon! My brother and son go salmon fishing a lot here - I like to do it on the barbie with a teriyaki/ginger sauce. Mmmmm
Oh - that shawl is absolutely gorgeous! Can't wait to see your progress on that one - have fun with it! It even looks like a pattern that I could do (I'm not good at following really complicated charts - but that definitely looks like one where you can get the pattern down pretty quickly)
Have fun!

it is also really good with a teriyaki marinade. what company did he get it from? We get ours from Great Alaska Seafood, but I've only bought 10 lbs. 35 lbs, that is a ton of fish.
Can't wait to see that beautiful done in dark green!
MMM - love Salmon. I just spray some foil, sprinkle salmon with Adobo and tightly seal foil, then bake in 425 oven for about 10 min on each side....moist, yummy and no clean-up to do!
