Grilled Atlantic salmon marinated in sweet Bourbon served with carrot health salad

Bhavana and I dropped into the McCaffrey’s to pick up a few items for Shaan. He’s making keema samosa for dinner.

With my cholesterol being high – over 262 – I thought it best to avoid too much meat and fried food. McCaffrey’s doesn’t have the selection that whole foods does but after spending some time in the deli I settled on two filets of Atlantic Salmon marinated in Bourbon. I also bought an entire striped Bass which the fishmonger was happy to skin and filet for me. Maybe I’ll grill that tomorrow.

I grilled the salmon – don’t forget to grease your grill so the fish won’t stick – for about 4 minutes on either side and served it up with some carrot health salad and confetti cole slaw that we also picked up from McCaffrey’s. It went down easy with a bottle of Innis & Gunn Rum Cask ale.

These are the new line of cameras that don’t use the 20th-century technology of a mechanical mirror inside that flips up and down between photos. In a few years, we’ll all look back and smile, having fond memories of using these Da Vinci-esque mechanical devices. Charts of how cameras used to work with their flipping innards will look like some of Leonardo’s unrealized steampunk inventions.
