I also remember my mother letting us go scrape mussels off the jetty for our dinner. Wish I could afford to eat like that every night now, lol.
lovsthosebigdogs: I am so intrigued about what you wrote. I love sea scallops, shell fish shrimp clams, etc wow you must really miss those days. I would have too.

Veal was not costly once and my mom cooked veal at least three time a week when we were growing up on the stove in the oven.

Metrands mentioned outside cooking vis a vis oven given we live in Florida.

Spot on Mrs. Rubicon biggest issue when i ask for a pot roast or beef stew oven roasted chicken, etc her response we have to wait for the cold weather which always comes back to my saying on which day of the year do you believe it will occur?
