The girls help grill a red snapper


We picked up a nice large red snapper for supper today. The kids were helpful, and assisted as I stuffed it with lemons, thyme, and other seasonings. They could not resist poking the fish eye as it reposed on the counter, feeling its strange squishiness on their fingertips. The snapper was fresh and quite delicious, having just been flown in from New Zealand. It's crazy how far seafood is sent in our modern world.
