jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Think everybody is busy getting ready for Christmas, groovy. They're sending cards, trimming trees, and planning meals. Me, I'm just trying to get over this stupid infection or whatever it is. I'm up and about but still doctoring the dumb thing. So you're busy at the store helping your daughter and son-in-law, hey? Where do all the orders come from, I'm wondering? The net or walk-ins mostly? _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	The fish at midnight tradition on Christmas Eve must have been a custom in many homes. We as Italians had fried smelts at the stroke of midnight, there were pickled herring on the table for Christmas but only smelts on Christmas Eve..... Funny, but many years later when pregnant with my first son I ate fried smelts and Italian salads almost every day, thats what I had a strong craving for. _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Never had smelt. Never had tilapia either but heard they are good. Perhaps I'll try them someday. Do you folks eat tilapia? What do you think of them? _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

Mama Red Registered: 08/12/08 Posts: 676 Loc: Wauconda, IL	I've had tilapia and it is a family favorite. We buy it frozen and bake in the oven or toss it on the grill with some spices. It is very mild, which is about the only kind of fish I can handle! _________________________ Love and light, hugs and blessings MamaRed (Jerilynne) www.mamaredspeaks.com www.onemillionacts.com Coming Summer 2009 "Kick-Butt Kindness: 52 No Cost Ways to Ripple Kindness 'Round the World" Let's create Kick-Butt-and-Take-Names Lives!

Lola Member Registered: 06/23/06 Posts: 3703 Loc: London UK	I've had tilapia as well but always fried by somebody else. It's almost like red snapper. But, uglier. My older grandson turns his nose up at it because he says it looks like a piranha. Kids! _________________________ <><

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	I've had tilapia and I like it. I get it at the grocery store and put a little lemon on it...bake it...and there you go. It doesn't taste "fishy." _________________________ Queen JJ www.queenjawjaw.com All Things Royal - 2010 and Beyond Humorist for the NABBW
