up at the cabin last weekend al speared the biggest ling cod in his diving history. it was the ugliest things i'd ever seen, julia agreed. last night we cooked up some greasy fish 'n chips! we fried the fries, battered the fish, cut up some red onions for the remaining batter and waited in anticipation for it all to be ready. during the last batch of fish frying, which contained the prized cheeks, al noticed something funky in the water. the thermometer had broken during that batch and we had to toss the fish. i almost cried. we sat down to a large batch of fries and three pieces of fish. no onion rings. no cheek. no thermometer.

I have been following you blog for a baby bit but I am still kind of confused about the whole cabin thing...and this fish only adds to my confusion
i like to be vague i guess... we have a cabin now, up in northern california. it's our weekend escape and for us it's brand new and we need to infuse it with us. al is a spear fisher and this is one of the reasons for the cabin purchase. it was built in 1954 and it's all i think about now, it's so cute. and teeny. baby. thanks for reading babyjane! i'm reading your blog now.
Oh no! That sucks!! Now Al will have to catch another big fish.
A whole new meaning to mercury poisoning! I hope you made lots of fries!
