Fishy Tale

Our friend Pam is fond of trout fishing, She is allowed to catch a certain number per year. But she cannot eat them all herself. She turned up on our doorstep with a lovely trout as a gift for us on Friday evening. We were thrilled - although the fish was completely gutted!

Bob simply stuffed it with fresh herbs [thyme and chives from the garden] and some garlic- plus butter and a splash of white wine. Then he baked it [foil-wrapped] in the oven, and served it with Jersey Royals and French beans. It was stunning!

What kind and generous friends God has given us.

  3. Maybe this is a dumb question, but did you keep the head on? I like fish, but not when they can still "look" at me.
    On another note, it's the kindness and generosity in such gestures that makes life so much easier.
