Yesterday my husband preached the message at our small church. I sang two specials (Remember Me and Hold on to Me). Our son Robert and his son Nathan joined us which was really special.
After church, several of us went to a local buffet restaurant which is always yummy. I especially love the salad bar.
Came home after picking up an online order at Walmart, then took a nap.
I'm getting to where I really, really like a short afternoon nap. So thankful to be retired!
This afternoon, my husband Dale cooked a catfish stew for dinner and I fried some okra from the garden and corn bread. He puts chunks of filleted catfish, potatoes, onion, chopped boiled eggs, and water to simmer into a stew. So yummy.
Have you ever made a fish stew? What do you put in yours?

@1creekgirl It is getting to be stew season with the cooler weather, enjoy the leftovers, I usually prefer leftover stew as it tastes so much better when reheated.

@Juliaacv Isn't it funny how certain leftovers are better than the first go round?

My favorite catfish is fried. I know you have good catfish houses in Nashville.

@CarolDM The catfish cafés are the best part of going to Ark where my husband is from.

Sounds like you really enjoyed your day. My husband and I aren't fish people, so that's never on the menu.

How wonderful to have a real Sunday with Church, singing and sermon and other people! Here the pandemic has brought such meetings almost to a standstill and attendance limited to advanced booking for a few. they are supposed to wear masks and not sing!
I miss that kind of a Sunday.

I pray we'll all be able to have wonderfully normal lives eventually.

I have never made a fish stew and truth be told, I have never eaten a fish stew. It sounds good. We honestly don't eat lot of seafood.

I like fried catfish the most, but the stew is good, too.

My husband makes a really good stew, usually with catfish. I love it fried, also.

Normally most of the stews in my country are based on onion and tomato, no spices are added to them. I love fish stew.
