You may be wondering what a Sea Kitten is. PETA decided people should start calling fish “sea kittens” instead. Upon what authority, I do not know. You can read all about Sea Kittens on the PETA Website. I customized my own Sea Kitten, using their Flash Sea Kitten creator application, and named him Tasty.
Suffice it say that I enjoy myself a Kitten of the Sea from time to time, and whatever you want to call them I’ll still continue to eat them. This is a really simple dish, and actually requires no cooking. It’s perfect for a summer day, although I created it in the dead of winter–I’m in denial about the prevailing (sub-freezing) temperatures of late. If you’re looking for a side item, there’s really no arguing against how well Sea Kittens go with Hush Puppies.

Everyone has their weakness in the kitchen. For me, it’s always been rice. Based on a few health tips, I decided about a year and a half ago to try to incorporate more whole grains into my diet. Brown rice tops many lists as a low-cost and healthy choice. For me, that posed a problem.
How I solved my recurring kitchen nightmare…

I guess I’m doing my part. Another slew of new camping gear is on the way! I selected several things I’ve had sitting in my Amazon cart for months. Maybe I’ve accepted a little restraint in my impulse buying? Doubtful.
Here’s the run-down. 100′ of 7-strand paracord. Very strong, light, and tough. Reminds me of a quote from “the Boondock Saints”:
Connor: [picking out weapons and gear] Do ya know what we need, man? Some rope.
Murphy: Absolutely. What are ya, insane?
Connor: No I ain’t. Charlie Bronson’s always got rope.
Murphy: What?
Connor: Yeah. He’s got a lot of rope strapped around him in the movies, and they always end up using it.
Murphy: You’ve lost it, haven’t ya?
Connor: No, I’m serious.
Murphy: Me too. That’s stupid. Name one thing you gonna need a rope for.
Connor: You don’t f-in’ know what you’re gonna need it for. They just always need it.
Murphy: What’s this ‘they’ shit? This isn’t a movie.
Connor: Oh, right.
[picks up large knife out of Murphy's bag]
Connor: Is that right, Rambo?
Murphy: All right. Get your stupid f-in’ rope.
Connor: I’ll get my stupid rope. I’ll get it. This is a rope right here.
What else did I get? Find out here…
