Fishy Fear

In my immediate family, no one eats fish. We didn't eat it growing up. Mom and dad still don't go near it. It's just how I was raised. Well, Peter's family is the opposite. Honey's favorite dish is shrimp scampi. It has taken some time but my mental block is slowly being chiseled away. Well, yesterday....at the trader joe's...I bought for the first time-- FISH! White Ruffy. I was babysitting the other night and that's what they had for dinner. Seeing it was the only option I tried it and discovered I liked it! Tonight, I tried to recreate it. Peter and I prepared it together which was very fun. It didn't turn out quite the same though. They used some gluten free bread crumbs and I think those tasted better than the ones I bought. Peter loves it! He added some lemon juice, salt 'n pepper and wishes their was more in the pan. :) I'm so glad he likes it!

I still have a bit of a mental block...the gag reflex kicked in on the final few bites. I'm working on it though!

love to you, p&l
