And you didn't even include the smoking thereof on Sunday! :) Thanks for the education! (AND the loan of the smoker, which is now sheltered in my garage, out of the elements.)
Regards,

You can tell them from me that deboning and filleting (and once
you've done that, how hard is the cleaning???) 100 pounds of salmon
is like winning the lottery on your birthday compared to shelling
even, say, 30 or 40 pounds of shrimp...
I'm not sure why this struck me the way it did; I'm not just dissing
someone else's work habits. Let me think about this and get back to
people. I think there may be some kind of Great Profound Thoughts
(tm) on food preparation emerging... I think I may have to reexamine
the "Just Shut Up and Do It" principle of industrial food service.
Keep watching the skies!

lbs of sausage by hand Saturday evening)
