Sorry fisherman....this isn't about what I caught this evening but what I ate.

Every September my Shrine Temple has a catfish fry before our regular meeting. For those of you who eat catfish, I apologize if your mouths start watering.

Here the catfish is getting a good coating of batter:

And in this shot you can see those hush puppies cooking away.

And here's the finished result:

Don't forget the main selection; catfish!

And here's a bunch of hungry Shriners enjoying their meal.

Oh yeah, here's a fellow that looks like he ought to pass on the meal....but guess what? He didn't! ::)

A great time was had by all and nobody left hungry.

Wes, it looks yummy, I probably should never look at any of your food posts when it is close to eating time or my diet could be in jeopardy!

Mention free food to a Shriner and look out Just Mona....they'll bowl ya over getting to the front of the line.

We have a car show today: hamburgers, hot dogs, roasted corn, ice cream, and an item I can't name here since this is a family site (and watched over by Moderators ::) ) Bad thing is, they aren't free today but can be purchased at a nominal fee. If you're not doing anything today, stop by as it will be a really big show!
