Well hubby thinks it is illegal to eat anything other than hamburgers, hot dogs, and homemade potato salad on any kind of American holiday. So guess what we are eating today? After we put up hundreds of square bales of hay. You guessed it, hamburgers, hot dogs (sausages really) and homemade potato salad, along with Georgia’s famous homemade ice cream made with our farm fresh milk. But our dear neighbor called yesterday as he often does from his boat on the Tennessee River, (praise the Lord for country folks with cell phones!) telling us to stop by later. This guy knows how to fish. He brought home 260 pounds of catfish. And shared more than half with us. There are over 30 fish and they are 2 feet long. Most of them we cleaned and put in the freezer.
I was going to share another gross science lesson with you since some of the fish were full of eggs but my camera ran out of battery power so that will have to wait till next time. But for now, yes today we are eating burgers but can you guess what we are eating tomorrow? Southern fried catfish. Mmmmm.
Gotta love neighbors like that! I’m curious how you fry your catfish? Will there be hush puppies with them?
