Ooops!
If I look less than thrilled, it is because I catch like a girl. It is true that I catch and throw baseballs, footballs, and basketballs like a girl because I have a female skeletal and muscular system. Yep, I was harassed most of my life for my poor athletic abilities, because I considered playing with balls to be silly boy's games that weren't worth the effort to master. Now I could hit bad guys right in the face with rocks and dirt clods and toss hand grenades into enemy bunkers without any problem, since there was far more at stake than playing stupid games.
Unfortunately, I fumbled scooping up one of the grilled salmon fillets off Leslie Anne's grill a couple of weeks ago. It broke, and part of it fell on the patio. Ooops! Dropping a delicious piece of fish is much more important than missing a grounder, pop fly, or forward pass. I told my girl to eat the other fillet, and I would eat the small chunk that remained, plus I picked up the fish off the patio tiles and judged it to be fit for me. The dropped piece was still cleaner than much of my Army food out in the field. I worked in fast food places in high school and know that cooks in the back play games with customers' food.
As the photo was taken, I still felt like an idiot and hadn't quite recovered my composure. My fish off the patio turned out ok, and this was my second try at grilling asparagus. Leslie Anne's corn on the cob and cornbread was good as always.
