 Originally posted by BigMackCam  OK... now I'm really confused. Most of us here in the UK think you call them shrimp. We're certain they're shrimp in America. I thought only us Brits called them prawns (shrimp are the tiny brown things)... as clear as mud read and watch Prawn vs Shrimp - Difference and Comparison | Diffen | |

| Originally posted by BigMackCam I've a hankering for some monkfish lately, and on the few occasions I've cooked it in the past, I've wrapped it in prosciutto ... but the thread talk here, and my recent re-discovery, has me thinking that small cubes of SPAM fried in a little soy sauce would be an excellent accompaniment instead of the prosciutto. I'm sure I'm breaking some foodie rule pairing monkfish with highly processed, mechanically reclaimed meat, but it sounds soooo good to me <drool>  Originally posted by robtcorl Add a little Velveeta and you've nailed it!  | |

Big ones. Scampi. The really big ones. Shelled, tail on, deveined, marinated and grilled over a mesquite fire is best. | |

| Originally posted by Aslyfox just turned on the television ( telly for some of you ) and started to watch the newest episode of NATURE being broadcast on my local PBS station at 7 PM local the show Nature - H Is for Hawk: A New Chapter Helen Macdonald's best-selling book H Is for Hawk told the saga of a grieving daughter who found healing in training a goshawk. Now she digs deeper into the world of these raptors by following a family in the wild and raising a goshawk of her own. although it is not listed yet these shows are often listed on the web site and available to view on: Episodes | Nature | PBS It is obviously a telly. When turned on it tells you lots of stuff but never responds to the return side of the conversation, which is kind of suicidal given the way Englishmen are famous for throwing stuff at their unresponsive telly when it tells them that their favourite soccer team just let through ONE, only ONE, goal to the opposition, especially if it is a referee assisted goal. | |

She has different taste in the vegetable choice but the pleasure of eating is still present. | |

| Originally posted by MarkJerling Hope you're OK Jean. The family is healthy and all are going forward in a positive direction ... and that is the most important for me. It looks like my oldest daughter will be going to medical school in the fall after high school graduation. Since she is a year ahead (soon to be just 17), we have agreed that she will do her first and very, very hard year of medical school in Poitiers at the university and live at home. We have agreed that her "job" is to study, study, study ... and that I (we) would take care of her meals, laundry, transportation, etc. She stated the other day that she was more interested in internal medicine and/or surgery after attending a short medical orientation conference ... we'll see. Her two young sisters are doing great, too. | |

Her two young sisters are doing great, too. athletic as well as academic: about 60 percent of us went on to a 4 year college - resulting in one veterinarian, one dentist, several CPAs as well as several attorneys and one guy who we all claimed was receiving money from his father's estate as long as he was in school - he was one of three kids, he had an older brother and he was a paternal twin and his dad died when he was a junior. his dad was the only doctor in town. my classmate also became a doctor and while doing his residency in Chicago went to and graduated from law school Tom is back in the same small town, also the town's doctor, not sure if he ever practiced law | |
