Mackerel

 Hi Natty!  How are you, my beautiful love?  I hope you are doing well.  I want you to know that I love you with all of my heart.  It's another average day here for me.  A bit on the busy side, I drove my mother around in the morning, but it calmed down in the evening.  I didn't do any yard work.  I didn't even have to cook my dinner, because my Mom gave me some stew.  I did have to prepare more cat food, because rice and fish has a 3 day window in the cooler tops.  A couple of days ago, I went downtown and got a good deal on mackerel.  I was surprised that there wasn't much information on mackerel on YouTube.  That was a few years ago, today there are a couple of videos about them.  It surprised me because mackerel is pretty much on everyone's menu.  The batch of mackerel before this one was a few days old, and only good for cats.  But this batch is fresh, so fresh that the cats didn't know I had fish with me when I entered the house.  That's how to tell fresh fish Natty, is has NO scent.  So when I make cat food, I stew the fish first and when the fish is done I pull it out and into the cooler, then steam the rice in the broth with NO SALT.  When I mix the fish in, I like to snack on the roe and livers.  It was heavenly today, the fish was so fresh when I bought it!  The roe melts into the stomach cavity and becomes creamy, and the I like to chow on the stomach lining too.  Not all of it should go to the cats!  This particular fish had large scales.  The cats don't care, though.
