Shellfish Pedicure?
On Thursday night Jim, Edward and I went out to Blackfish to celebrate our recent round of victories. I had the bouillabaisse, which was mostly shellfish in a saffron broth, but only ate about half of it and took the rest home to have for lunch on Friday. Yesterday I ate most of it, but reserved salmon for Philomena to eat today, and kept the shells and the broth in the container, just put it back in the fridge.
Sure enough, this morning as we were putting salad greens back in the fridge after breakfast, the container somehow fell and exploded, sending shellfish infused saffron broth all over the freshly cleaned kitchen floor, and all over my left foot in my new slides. I stood there taking a moment to absorb the situation, not wanting to track broth all over the place.
MR to the rescue... he grabbed the dish cloth and began to gently wipe off my shellfish soaked foot. "This is like a pedicure," I said. Then it occurred to me: they have margarita pedicures and citrus pedicures and herbal pedicures and sea salt pedicures, so why not a shellfish pedicure? I"m sure someone would pay a lot of money for it. Probably someone without a cat.
It's a good thing I was about to jump in the shower anyhow because I am not enjoying smelling like a scallop.
Unfortunately, shellfish is clearly not a good kitchen floor cleaner. Back to the mop... again.
