put them in a big clean bowl of clean water and don't feed em anything for 24 hrs ..then wash each in clean cold water from your kitchen sink faucet.
chop off their heads, remove the gills and fry or bake them whole. down the gullet they go like little sardines..or stick them on top of the next gluten free pizza like anchovies..

Yeah that would go over well, putting fish on an "emotional vegetarian"'s gluten free pizza.

Got 100 gallons today. $2.999/gallon, just a bit more expensive than gasoline.

Had to look up what an "emotional vegetarian" was.

I made it up 
Basically she is vegetarian not because she thinks it is healthier but because she doesn't want animals to die so people can eat them. She has to deal with the rest of us eating them anyway. Still sure she couldn't deal with us eating any animal she knew or saw personally. That said, she does know what happens to a lot of the cockerels at the big hatcheries since mostly people order female chicks for eggs. Somehow she deals with that. I don't ask questions!

Don't forget to watch it thru to the PSA at the very end.
(I thought this way of doing a NY strip steak was blasphemy till I tried it......none better, but lots of trouble to go thru for just one steak.)

I just checked my vendor's website, it's now $2.79/gallon. I got 150 gallons a few weeks ago(at $2.69/gal.) to top of at least one of the tanks. I have 2 tanks, one is full and the other is about 5/8. Hopefully it will last at least until end of the year. I don't have a wood stove, just the oil for heating.

Not terribly big on crunchy fried stuff. When I do go to KFC I get the original, not the extra crispy.
Here is the pond after the rain we got recently. Note how nicely green it is already. It has gone "up" a couple of feet horizontally. Of course that isn't at all like a couple of feet vertically.
And a question for you wood people. I cut 16" off the sugar maple that has been laying in the yard for 3 years to see how far the end cracking went. If too much, might as well cut it for firewood. No cracking at 16" in but there is a lot of "decoration". Wondering if this tree was cut into planks if that stuff wouldn't look rather ugly. Is this normal or is something going on that would make it not a great choice for building a trestle table?
