I figured I’d be spending the day in the house so why not raid the fridge for things that needed to be used in case we lost power? I made basil fried rice, chicken soup, papaya mango salsa, and banana bread. If we lose power, we’re good to go on food (I made sure we had wine and beer on hand, we could always drink water from the toilet tanks if we got desperate.)
Pan Fried Flounder
My mother gets wild game and fish from customers at her barber shop. I don’t ask why and try not to think about it too much. Yesterday she called me and asked if I wanted a flounder. Since I have poor luck at catching keepers I agreed. I filleted it, skined it, then fried it. Fried flounder is the best way to cook these guys.

Our friend ordered this, so I can’t tell how it was but it looked very tasty.
Slow Braised Beef Ribs Short Ribs @ The Public House, Norfolk, VA.
The Public House recently opened and the buzz has been positive. Get in early if you want a table and enjoy good food at very reasonable prices. The owners were shooting for a comfortable atmosphere and I think they hit the mark. It was relaxed and even with a full house, it seemed as if everyone was among friends :)

Crab Cakes my wife made for us. My nephew caught a bunch of crabs this weekend. I picked the leftovers the other night.
