One of our friends went fishing this past weekend and offered us some fresh fish. I intended to scale and clean the fish this afternoon between church services but when I got home the fish were cleaned and ready to cook. I asked my 96-year-old Mom who cleaned the fish and she said proudly I did. It was the first time she had attempted this. My Dad who died 35 years ago was a fisherman and he had always done it. Anyway she said it was harder than she thought and the scales went everywhere. I said Mom you did scale the fish under water didn’t you? She said no I didn’t know I should. There are fish scales EVERYWHERE!!! Moms gotta love um!
