Okay folks, I'm really sorry about posting this, as it superficially has no significance making it worth bringing over, but hey, I find a subtle something in it rather heart-warmingly funny.

Why Stews Always Beat Steaks

This is a simple Italianate fish stew, with classic Mediterranean flavors. Itâ€™s easy to put together and everything can be prepped ahead. Just pop it the oven 30 minutes before dinner.

INGREDIENTS
2 pounds white-fleshed fish fillets, such as hake, snapper or sea bass, skin removed
Salt and pepper
2 teaspoons chopped thyme or marjoram
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 small lemon, thinly sliced
2 cups diced white onion
4 minced garlic cloves, plus 1 whole garlic clove for rubbing bread
Â¼ teaspoon crushed saffron
Â½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Â½ teaspoon crushed fennel seed
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 cup dry white wine
2 cups diced tomatoes, fresh or canned
3 cups fish stock, light chicken broth or water
12 large clams
4 thick slices country bread
Â¼ cup chopped parsley

No primitive responses, but that's not why this was posted anyway.

For what its worth,it sounds revolting so no surprise a DUmbass would like it.

I like it because it used to drive ol' Mike, the sparkling old dude, nuts, back when he used to pay attention to me. Drove him up the walls.

I think stinky Mike is probably paying closer attention to who the trophy wife is messaging on her cell phone with now.

He probably should do that, but I think he got bored with franksolich too and quit reading me.

Which is okay; I can't stay exciting forever for everybody.

And just as primitives need a new objet d' animosite now and then, franksolich needs a new, different audience once in a while.
