Fish steamed in a bamboo steamer is yummy!

A couple of weeks ago a friend of Husband's gave him some redfish that he got when he went to the coast. There were two huge fillets so I cut them up and we had some tonight which we prepared in the bamboo steamer. (I bet you guessed that from the title of this...didn't you!) Well, it was delicious. We used to use a steamer, gosh...pretty much every day. When we got here we naturally stored [almost] everything in storage...where it still is. Rather than look for it...I, being the shopper that I am, ordered one, a smaller one, from Amazon. We've used it a few times but I forget about it. We have been doing more of the fresh vegetable eating as of late, and have been using it more. And stacking them is good.

We had broccoli and cauliflower on one tray and the fish on the second. Husband spiced up the fish with garlic, black pepper, soy sauce and a sprinkling of foo foo dust. Popped it in the steamer and 'poof'...10 minutes later...supper. Add some rice...delicioso! If you can believe this, I couldn't eat all of mine. I was stuffed. It was a healthy size serving, but filling. I'll eat it for breakfast.

We did normal crap today...and hung a door. I'm really tired. I'm thinking this is not good. I am back on the multi-multi-vitamin regimen and am eating healthy (except for the chips and dip...and possibly the lemon pound cake...and an occasional twix bar...only occasional) but I need calories. I need to regroup. Maybe some Ensure for a while. I am still losing weight. It can stop now. In another life, I'd be ecstatic...not now.

I unraveled the hat. It really needs two strands of yarn. I feel better about my choice.

Tomorrow I will start making jewelry. It's on the list. Make Jewelry on Monday. And for several days thereafter. The 'new' yarn won't be here until the 24th to tempt me. I am going to DR with Husband on Tuesday and will probably take the unraveled hat yarn with me so I can be productive as we drive. Or should I say...as I ride.

We watch The Glades (on A&E). It's a pretty good show. There is so little to watch on TV anyway. Correction: There is so little that I want to watch. Boston Legal is on right now (but I'm watching The Glades) and I like that show, also. I used to watch Boston Legal when it was on as a weekly show - DENNIE CRANE - Love it. I was surprised to see it on tonight, but I made my choice. I should see if it's on DVD through Amazon. Correction: I should see if it's on Amazon, and reasonable. I also like The Practice. 

Took a break and took a shower. It's late and I need to get some rest. Got lots of jewelry calling my name. See you tomorrow...
