Also beware of mosquitos.
That is likely to happen.
Use BT dunks.

That will keep mosquitos out of standing water?
Put in some goldfish. Theyre organic eat mossies, and you can always
eat
them when they grow big enough.

But carp are so bony! ;-)

I'd personally vote for bass or crappie minnows!


Any recipes for crappie minnows?;-))


Just eat 'em whole! Sushi.

Oh, my god.

Sashimi is a Japanese delicacy primarily consisting of very fresh raw
seafood, sliced into thin pieces . . .
A reputed motivation for serving wasabi with sashimi (and also gari,
pickled ginger), besides its flavor, is killing harmful bacteria and
parasites that could be present in raw seafood.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sashimi

I was going to have breakfast, now I have to wait for the room to
stop spinning:-P

Sorry. ;-)

While I like cooked fish, sometimes I'm just in the mood for really
"fresh" food...

Steak Tartar is the most obvious one, but there are others using thinly
sliced raw beef in a salad, but I can't remember what it's called. The
trick to making it really good is using really _lean_ beef as, to me,
raw beef fat is nasty. :-P

Sometimes I just crave raw beef. I probably need the iron. It's a girl
thing.

I generally use Top round:

Dipped in a bit of soy sauce and/or raw egg yolk. ;-d

Followup to my own post now that I looked at the wiki link (sorry!)

Carpaccio. That's the dish I could not remember the name of. Thanks for
the Wiki link!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpaccio

I've seen it served with slices of fresh tomato and fresh basil leaves
too, much like Insalata Caprice. But, that's served with fresh made
cheese slices.

Heh! Sometimes I fast for a day or two, but not deliberately.
Sometimes I'm just too busy to eat, or am simply not hungry.

It's good for weight control.

Ugh. I'll pass.
There are some raw things even _I_ won't eat. I'll draw the line at
maggots. g

I do enjoy Sashimi and raw beef but will not eat raw pork or chicken.
The texture leaves much to be desired for one thing.

I can eat most veggies raw or cooked. OB gardening, I really need to
consider putting in more chard. I love the stuff! I'm also thinking
about picking up some beets from the grocery store just to grow the
greens. Dad loves beets but I cannot stand them. I love the greens
only. ;-d I've noted a trend at the stores now where they've quit
chopping off the greens. For awhile there, you could not get beets with
the leaves.

I've not seen carrot greens in ages. I like to feed fresh greens to
Freya, my Goffin's Cockatoo.

I've seen "The Wild", but not the other...
Raw foods tend to be higher in nutrition, but that can balance out with
some high fiber veggies. Cooking some stuff makes it more digestible.

Most of the time, I cook my steak rare. ;-d

http://i4.tinypic.com/4mkzc40.jpg

Seared on the outside, chilled, and served in a salad.
A creative way to serve steak leftovers!

Try marinading the thinly cut beef in vinaigrette for an hour or two, or
over night. Serve with cold leeks or asparagus cut into 1" to 2"
lengths, and French bread. Bread, cheese, and red wine, afterwards.
