Topic of the Day: not a real fan of much fish...mostly only fish-and-chips or fish sandwich-type of breaded fish.

TOD: I’ve been enjoying the mango tango sushi roll at our favorite spot.

Apparently I can’t sleep much past 3 a.m. when she’s away, the kids are in my bed, and about 30 stuffed animals have joined us.

I slept rather well with the ever-faithful Thatch. He loves to cuddle and I love the enthusiastic leaps and hops he makes whenever he jumps onto the bed and runs to settle next to me. I had room break at 4:50, and I decided to get up rather than lie in bed for 40 minutes until the alarm rang. Annabelle then leaped onto the bed from the cat tree and spent the next 15 minutes while I dressed sneezing and blowing snot all over me and thed bed.

I was feeling fine until I opened the cans of Fancy Feast and began putting it into their bowls. I made it to the bathroom where I spent the next thirty minutes being sick. I feel fine at the moment, but things ca turn.

I'm im a very awkward position at the moment with my medical issues because Con Edison, our utilities company, has been replacing pioes on West 82nd Street. For two months now, the crew has drivenazy with the construction noise right under our window and half the time the street is closed off to traffic. The worst part is that I keep moving appointments because with the street closed off Access-a-Ride cannopt get to my building to pick me up or deliver me back. Even worse, Con EWdison keeps moving the completion date. I hate to move all the appointments this month, but I have to do it.

My only good news is that I had a fantastic work session with my student Joe yesterday. He's a very good composer, and the chart we looked over was fun and full of humor and invention. He asked me id another student, and I said, All I can get!

He has a trombonist friend - I didn't ask, but it may be one of the three in his orchestra - just out of the Royal Academy of Music who needs some arranging help. I hope he contacts me.

Back to the music today. Playing a spring concert this evening, got another one to get ready for Thursday afternoon, and I've got to learn Piano 2 of Chicago for the probing of a sitz on Thursday evening. Then next week is all Chicago.

I would LOVE to be eating more fishes of the sea than I do. I just so rarely think of it. BK's stuffed salmon sounds wonderful. It's been way too long since we grilled any salmon, and I'd like to make this the summer of its return. Nathan just recently set up a smoker, so we can do that now.

If the smell of the cat food triggered it, perhaps you're pregnant.

It is getting into the 80s here during the day, although the nights are still cool. I am hoping the building will turn on the A/C soon. I don't sleep well when it's over 80 inside.

TOD: I roast salmon filets about once a week. Just a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, then into the oven at 425 degrees for 12-13 minutes. Flaky, Delicious.

singdaw · « **Reply #24 on:** May 06, 2025, 05:41:22 AM »

And so easy!

singdaw · « **Reply #25 on:** May 06, 2025, 05:41:49 AM »

Topped with squirts of fresh lemon juice and a tiny bit of mayo.

TOD: These years, favorites are shrimp cocktail, various salmon dishes with rice, and a very occasional lobster bisque

Back in my youth, I really liked Arthur Treacher's fish and chips, which I realize probably weren't all that healthy - but it seemed to be everywhere and was quite the taste treat, at a time in my life when I so often seemed to be on the go and looking for food you could get fast (hence the term fast food, I guess)
