Hi Dave,

 RH> I'm still cooking for 2 altho Steve is doing quite a bit more these
 RH> days. Meals aren't usually very fancy but we're well fed. Working on
 RH> eating down a well stocked freezer, basically buying fruits, veggies,
 RH> bread to go with the meats we have on hand.

 DD> I cook for myself. My body's schedule and Dennis' body schedule are
 DD> very different. He's the same age as I am (plus 2 months) and we're
 DD> best buds. But he sometimes has breakfast al late as 2 o'clock in the
 DD> afternoon. And then supper after I'm already in the sack. It's a
 DD> little flustrating when I've whipped up something I'm especially proud
 DD> of and wish to share. But, we remain friends.

Sounds like you've reached aa good compromise but I can understand about
being a bit disappointed when he's not available to try something extra
special. Some days Steve has an early breakfast (Fridays at 6:30 with
guys from the church for a Bible Study, Saturdays with fellow veterans
about 7:00); some days we have it together between 8 & 9, other days we
eat separatly. Lunch and supper are together unless one of us has a
meeting with supper included.


 RH> We don't do as much fresh fish as we used to, partly because we're not
 RH> right on the coast as we were at various times. We have cut back on
 RH> portion size of a lot of things, even meats, as the appetite has
 RH> decreased with age.

 DD> I do a fair amount of fish ... of the freshwater varieties. I have two
 DD> fish markets here where I can get native fish (catfish, buffalo, drum,
 DD> Copi (the new name for the Asian carp), turtle, etc. Or, at Roberts, I
 DD> can get saltwater varieties, both frozen and fresh(ish) flown-in
 DD> stuff.

Nice! Wegman's and Publix both sell fish but we don't buy it that often.
Got spoiled, living on the coast of NC, Pacific coast and HI. (G)


 DD> I've not made this for a few years. But, it's a favourite. And I can
 DD> buy it in single (or double) portions ready-to-cook at Robert's Fish
 DD> Market. Which is very convenient


 DD>       Title: Baked Stuffed Flounder
 DD>  Categories: Seafood, Stuffing, Breads
 DD>       Yield: 4 Servings

It does look good, but have you priced crab lately?
