Fish stock is just a broth, a cooking base for adding other ingredients too.
-
Thanks dood!
Is there a reason why not to add the entire fish(sans gills/fillets)???
If you add the flesh from the start, you will have mush by the time you are done. Better to have nice chunks of fish in your chowder instead of mush.

Fish stock for soups and chowders is simple. First fillet fish and set them aside for later. Remove head and tails, and place them in a 2gal pot of water. Add 1/2 tbsp salt, 6-8 whole allspice beads, chopped celery, parsley, onion.
Set to a low boil for 1-2 hours, or reduced to half of volume. Strain through a fine mesh sieve, cool, package and freeze.
Fish heads always make the best stock, as my Gram always said.

Ryan, rules were sometimes meant to be broken.
Keeping the kids out late, or pulling them from school was a regular thing in our home.
If it means you and your kids are having fun together, and getting in some precious bonding time time.... WHO CARES WHAT THE RULES ARE. Enjoy every precious minute of it.

At least catfish is available from U.S. farms. As are tilapia. Some tilapia also comes from wild harvest in Mexico. Some of the great bass lakes, like El Salto were also stocked with tilapia.

ID isn't for you, it's for someone else to identify you... I didn't realize that actually had to be explained to someone.
Makes it easier to identify the corpses bobbing face first in the water

I hope all goes well for your Dad.
Sadly, it eventually happens to us all. We watch the decline in out loved one's health, and are powerless to stop it. In time our loved ones will look on as we suffer that same fate.

Beans have goota bark back

That's really a shame.. there should be a volunteer org. kind of like neighbourhood watch.
It only works if enforcement is available to answer a callout. There are 3 CO's available to cover 15 of 21 shifts, minus vacation time, sickness, court days. Assignments to surveillance and special task forces, etc....
The same shortage occurs throughout the province, and most local police are utterly unqualified to fill the gap. and when they try, at least in Niagara, they screw up royally.

Are you sure that's ontario? I never seen mountains like that around here. Looks great!
You never heard of the "Blue" Mountains?

Turtle poachers? wow
There is an extensive and lucrative market for both Painted and Map turtles. I've seen some of these people at work at some of the ponds, armed with dipnets and coolers, combing the shoreline for small turtles. Have called the MNR a few times. Sadly, no one available, as the Niagara region cannot have 24/7 coverage with a 3 man team.

Just wait until the pup discovers the taste of fish. The moment I start warming the pan, the dogs are in the kitchen wrapped around my feet. So far, Casey has not made an attempt at stealing from the table.

Nothing a glass or 2 of the finest won't cure.

No better combination than beans, meat and beer. Bush are no substitute for homemade, but they are pretty good.
Just remember, no more than 2 bean eaters should be in the room at any given time.
-
I like beans but what's this obsession with them. They're on almost every plate in the reports!
Probably cuz a lot of us grew up watching Blazing Saddles. Remember Mongo?
-
I see you two got bit by the puppy bug after visiting with Casey last week
Sure looks like a cute little fella. He'll grow on you real quick, too

I even take it with me to Alaska evry fall.
I have it hooked up to a generator and it has a place of honour in my camper.
Eventually hope to have a Rancilio Silva and a Rancilio Rocky grinder.
I'm sorry, but taking the cappuchino machine camping is so urban limp wristed. Whatever happened to the good old tin pot over the fire, a dash of salt and some eggshells fer good measure. A man should be able to chew his coffee

Tough to book cabins just for a weekend in mid-summer.
Nice places on Nip like Memquisit, Lakair and my favourite, Shuswap. All on the West Arm.

It's all about the lawyers. What happens when Lola Granola sues the network because her child was "traumatized" by the site of blood? The disclaimer helps get them off the hook.
This is just one of the consequences of a limp wristed modern society. Don't want to know about the realities of fending for oneself and can't cope if they tried.

I love reading all the adventures of Happy Jack. Puts a great big smile on my face and makes my day.
Put him in a "Tiddly suit" and we can call him "Jolly Jack"

IF you want the carpet to last any length of time, do not go with the cheapest line. Whether carpet or underpad, they will not last.
Amount of traffic is also a factor in choosing underpad for different parts of the house. Is insulating "R" ratings a factor? How about the flooring's ability to muffle sound?

Great work with the school tanks as well. A great learning opp, and introduction to fishing , for the kids.

What a great day. The swap meet was very busy. So many familiar and new faces. Glad to have been able to have at least a few words with every one. Casey sure enjoyed all the attention and was plum tuckered out at the end of it all.
Hope you guys enjoy the salsa
Thanks for making it a good day.
what song are you listening to right now???
