Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

I just made those apple cider - caramel cookies and holy crap those are some good cookies.

The reason is simple, it better allows them to scan a wide field of vision for approaching predators.

Yes. And also because of the evil.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

it better allows them to scan a wide field of vision for approaching predators.

Plus they must have lots of predators, what with being so tasty.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

There is much truth in this. Goats may have to contend with tigers, leopards, wolves, bears (surprisingly fast at times), wild dogs and ita.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Oh, cooking thread, I have a cooking question.

Every week, on Thursday, Todd deep-fries me fish. We got different fish a couple of weeks ago, and, when battered and fried it tastes "fishy" in a watery, icky way, and is nearly inedible. The old fish did not have this problem.

Any ideas?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

almost at 2 hours.

no idea on the fish, I have never fried them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That sounds like bad fish! Or at least unsuitable-for-frying fish.

Yeah, sounds like bad fish.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Ok. If it is again inedible tonight (it's already defrosted, which is the longest part of the process), then I'll throw the rest out and get new.

What kind of fish are we talking about? Some are better suited for frying than others.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

It's tilapia. We've successfully fried tilapia before...

eta: if it makes a difference, we bought it frozen and thaw it right before we fry it.
