Yesterday I got a text message from him and it was a picture of some young guy holding up a big fish. No message. Just a picture of a guy and a fish. I sort of laughed to myself and assumed that was all the fish that I was getting.
Wrong! This morning UPS deliverd 13.75 pounds of fresh salmon to my office. That's right it was the fish in the text message picture. I don't really like salmon, but Neila really loves it. So, I called Walter and told him that he had to come help me cook it. It was two enormous filleted (is that a word?) halves. Of course we are totally out of butter, no lemon juice, no nothing. Fresh ground black pepper, sea salt and tiny bit of fresh dill from the tiny plants I just put in the ground and threw it on the grill. It was incredible and I don't even like salmon. Grilled a half and ate almost all of it and cut up the rest and put it in the freezer. Swimming in the pacific one day and in my tummy the next. Insane. Thanks UPS. And if you want your own salmon see below:
p.s. salmon is a lot easier to prepare than an ice chest full of deer.
