I needed to go to the dentist early this morning for a cavity that was found deep in the bottom right side of a crown. I asked him about that if this was unusual-and he said it was from acid reflux-Wow. I told him about what I was going through-and he said since I am not a medical doctor I can not say anything about this unless the patient brings it up in conversation. Told me when I was sleeping on my right side (my usual side) the cavity formed then. That was at 9 am and it is now 1:30 pm as I write this and that side is still totally numb along with most of my tongue. (Note: we eat our main meal at 2 pm and after I ate the numbness is finally almost gone.)
I had other errands to do along with stopping at the local grocery store for fresh items and a few other things. As I was bringing things down into the house the UPS man came with my fish box-Perfect timing indeed, since Larry can not answer the door. I had left the front door open with a note to put the box just inside the house-so it wouldn't be in the sun. It worked out perfect.
I took some photos-and am very impressed with this company. Better packaging materials-dry ice, and compostable packing- than the first company I tried. All the fish is sooooo much nicer and larger than from the other company too.
I contacted the company to let them know I was so happy with my fish and also to change my next order from July to August. This company makes it so easy to change up what is in your box and when you want it or don't want it. I haven't worked with a company in a long time that is so friendly and hands on. She also referred me to their Facebook page that shares recipes.
I took photos front and back of the fish, but the photos did not load in order - sigh-so just showing the fronts with the labels
Hi Kathy, it looks as if you did a wonderful thing with this purchase. I love the contents of the box you are showing in your photos. I am sure you will enjoy this great food for a while! Thank you so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda, I will have fun looking for simple recipes and one of the videos mentioned that ocean salmon cooks in less time than the pond raised found in most grocery stores- so something new to learn about Happy long weekend coming up-any plans? we have lots of rain foecast-ok by me-less crazy boaters on the lake-smiles
DeleteThanks, Kathy, for posting about the Wild Alaska delivery. I showed the website to my husband and he was impressed too. Thankfully, we have a supply of fresh fish at the local supermarkets, but it's nice to know there is an alternative if and when needed. Hope the ebay cookbooks are good and please do share about those as well. Sorry to read about the cavity and long dental appointment, never any fun 😟
ReplyDeleteGood evening, I don't have much access close by for fresh fish. our small wal mart does have some their salmon is pretty good but they do not sell too much other ocean fish. This will be fun for me to learn more about these fish and try out recipes. this tooth took forever to get rid of all the numbing shot. he said an hour it took til after 3 pm oh well this was in a difficult spot I love the dentist-very rural country father and son team
DeleteWe do not hav any holiday weekend plans as our getaway was last weekend, but we may go to a friends' home for dominoes Sat or Sun.
ReplyDeletewe are supposed to have lots of rain and storms coming in friday into monday we'll see if that happens-ok by me the crazy boaters will be less haha
DeleteYou couldn't pay me enough to go out on the Lake on a holiday weekend.
DeleteI agree-they are total crazy out there-some holidays I close the blinds on the big windows so as not to watch
DeleteWonderful that you got your fish box but so sorry on that cavity. I knew someone that got such a cavity can't remember who it was. -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.cim
ReplyDeleteHi Christine thank you I am excited to try some of the fish soon I have a couple more from the first box so will finish those first
DeleteKathy it was my husband who had the tooth problem! It wasn't a cavity - it seems the tooth cracked under the crown after a long time. He ended up having to remove the tooth and got an implant. -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
Deletethat sounds painful-
DeleteI read cookbooks like books too. I have a lot of them, but every now and again I get the urge and do a clean out. That fish looks good, and it's wild caught too. They say wild caught is better for you, but then again, ocean fish numbers are dropping. But Alaska seems to have good limits. Enough about that Enjoy your fish. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteGood to read you love to read cookbooks too-hugs. Alaska does seem to have good ocean fishing not sure about how that is all handled
DeleteYour fish box looks impressive! And I'm like you on the novocaine, it seems to take hours. But beats the pain of not having it!
ReplyDeleteYes this is true about the dentist shot-This cavity was down in the gum-so I think he had to do extra pain killer
DeleteBummer about the tooth, but woohoo about the fish box! We had some of our Alaskan salmon last night and Barb said we only had 3 pieces left!
ReplyDeleteGood morning, I think salmon is my favorite fish this will be the first time trying the coho salmon and ground salmon do you guys make a fish chowder? if so do have you found a good recipe?? I love chowders
DeleteSo glad you got your fish! Looking forward to seeing what you make! Yes everytime we move we downgrade... Good to go through things i guess but it sucks when you have to get rid of things you really want to keep... Hugs! deb
ReplyDeletePS... You have a card coming in the mail... :)
Good morning, we did a big downsize when we moved to the lake-but all my craft things came with me-my room is cramped but that's ok haha Never know what craft I am in the mood for. Felt bad for Larry no room for all his tools and machinery
DeleteLooking good in your neighborhood. I love chowders but have no recipe. The fish box does look amazing. You will need to tell us how it tasted. Janice
ReplyDeleteI will for sure-I have a couple pieces left from the other company's box I will eat first. the difference between the two is amazing
Deletehappy weekend
