Something Smells Fishy Around Here..


Hi Everyone! Happy Saturday! So, its another busy day for this innkeeper chick.. but I found time to do something that I love to do and ... it goes toward a GREAT cause. Every summer here locally there is a Fishing Contest. These salmon caught by those during the contest are all donated for this event. Today was the yearly Fish Boil at the local boat club here in Ludington. Can you say yummy?! If you have never experience a fish boil with salmon.. its a must. I call it "pour mans lobster". When you have it with hot melted butter.. its to die for! So, with all these fish caught during the tournament.. they are all donated to this fund raiser and thus.. the fish boil - where they boil the salmon in a HUGE pot with onions, potatoes and carrots. There was also fried fish, baked beans, fresh rolls, potato salad and coleslaw and homemade desserts.. yummy!! All of this for $9 (or more all going as donations to Hospice Of Michigan). I got to sneak away with my friends, Lucinda and her mom(pictured above). It was only an hour away from work but let me tell ya.. it was much needed. A little escape with friends and good food is better than therapy anyday!
