WHAT ARE YOU EATING TODAY?

[PadawanWarrior]

Got pizza from Don Chendo yesterday.

Today we stopped by La Coqueta after going to the Yak-Muul cenote. The cenote was awesome and these were some tasty enchiladas. All the food has been pretty impressive so far. I'm loving it.

Chicken soup is still waiting in the form of a left-over roasted seasoned chicken carcass in the fridge. The best laid plans of mice and men..

So, after having had deep-fried sea scallops and shrimp for lunch, and having some left-over dredging and egg wash mixture, I realized I'd thawed some of the halibut from this last summer's trip out to the Gulf of Alaska with my now estranged (again) daughter, and I was feeling poorly and seriously tired, so my wife made up some deep-fried halibut 'fingers' and I got the last micro-amount of the homemade tartar sauce to slather on a few of them.

I think a beverage and some evening Rx pills, and I'll be off to bed to get up early tomorrow to speak with a urology oncologist in Seattle, then we'll be off to vote for Cornell West.

About an inch and a half to snow blow or scoop in the driveway and paths tomorrow or the next day, a snowmobile to pick up in town if the key got programmed, and some discs from past spine scans to send via snail mail to LA.

Days seem full even when they're not anymore.

A pair of Mallard ducks cooked in the slow cooker for 6 hours with celery stalks then into air fryer for 15 minutes from flight to table all in all 48 hours, 24 hours hanging. Home cooked with carrots, onions, roast potatoes, brocoli, and green beans, gravy, and a touch of avacado and lime sauce and last but not least a touch of sea salt and a touch of pepper very tasty indeed

Finally.. the long-awaited chicken and veggie soup.

The same chicken and veggie soup, and a post-voting, post-town trip beef, ancho chili, and white Mexican cheese sausage on a Keto bun with some no-sugar ketchup.

Nuthin' yet.

Dogs need lunch, during which I'm torn between 5 colossal Patagonia wild-caught shrimp, likely steamed and dipped in garlic butter, or yet another uncured beef, ancho chili and Mexican white/farmer's cheese sausage on a Keto bun with no-sugar ketchup, possibly with slices of sweet onion and perhaps some slices of jalapeno peppers, if any remain.

Dinner is lined out to be sort of a homemade 'captain's plate', with deep-fried breaded (with Keto bread crumbs) calamari fingers cut from squid steaks, deep-fried Patagonia wild-caught colossal red shrimp, and deep-fried breaded giant sea scallops. With homemade tartar sauce and cocktail sauce, of course.

Part of the whole Kromagnon meat diet I take stints at fairly often. There'll be time for steamed veggies when a nurse or CNA is feeding me unsweetened institutional oatmeal from a spoon, as I sit in my wheelchair, drooling uncontrollably while secretly staring down at her skirt and remembering when such shit mattered.

Made quick stuff last night as we were late after dealing with trailers, the barn, snowmobiles, etc., outside.

So, I just made about a quart of deluxe tartar sauce and I'm mixing up the whole wheat pastry and almond flour seasoned initial dredge, then the egg, lemon juice, almond milk and seasonings wash, and the Keto breadcrumbs and plain breadcrumbs concoction for the final outer crust (2/3 Keto breadcrumbs and 1/3 standard breadcrumbs; store no longer has whole wheat breadcrumbs for the last 2-3 years).

Fresh oil in the now-washed deep-fryer.

Then on to heating up the fryer to 370 f. and getting everything coated properly while it heats up.

Hopefully get slathered in awesome deep-fried seafood grease before I have to drive 30-some miles to pick up the trailer I dropped off this AM.

*Pictures might follow, if there's time and the smart phone in the house is charged.

OH, MAN!! THAT WAS WAY TOO MUCH!!!!!

We fried 13 giant sea scallops, about 8 or so colossal Patagonia wild-caught red shrimp, and 2 good size calamari steaks cut into strips.

Added some corn starch to the seasoned almond flour and whole wheat party flour dredge to help crisp it up.

The Keto breadcrumbs require more seasoning next time as the Keto bread is typically pretty 'flat' in flavor.

Otherwise....

No dinner tonight.. Now completely unnecessary.

But I have plenty of time to make it the 30+ miles to get the trailer, and maybe by the time I get there I won't feel like the spoiled kid in Willy Wonka's movie.... having to be rolled out the door or transported on a hand-truck.
