Re: (...)
The fishermen amongst us will know that Saturday was opening day here in NY, and I guess elsewhere??
We went out in the canoe in the evening and caught a half dozen. Only a few big enuff to keep. But we had a wonderful supper of oven fried bass filets, creamy orzo with lemon basil and some greenbeans and onions. Simple but very satifying

So does the creamy orzo with lemon basil, Cis! I've been on an orzo/ risotto kick lately.

Both sound good to me. I may have to try that orzo for sure!
Not too many bass in the lake that I know of, but used to be lots of perch. We've noticed this year, there are no beds in the grass in front of the house and not many to be caught. William was just ranting that he's figured it out. There have been river cats found in the lake recently. He thinks some person introduced the species to the lake and they're eating up the perch. I don't dare mention fishing again, unless I want him to burst a blood vessel.

Sorry, catfish. The ones found in the river are called river catfish...there are many varieties. The ones found naturally in the lake usually only get about 10 or 12 pounds, while the river cats can get up to 40 or 50.

LOL - Here I was thinking it was some kind of feral cat that somehow knows how to swim and is gobbling up fish.

...and I thought it was a saxophone player who had a gig down by the docks.

Once I tried orzo, Daphne, I was hooked! You can add this and that to flavor it differently, but it's all good!
Don't wait too long to tell someone you love them.
