In the South where I grew up, summer was all about seafood. As an adult, I developed a pretty nasty food allergy to shellfish - but I can still eat some fish. And despite the snarky comments from my husband, I happen to think that frying a good fish is one of the […]
The weather here on the east coast has recently been hot and uncomfortable. Of course, you know what they say: when life gives you lemons, make lemonade - and beer!
