I caught you a delicious bass*

I had planned to eat fish for dinner last night, so I went to the store to get some salmon on my way home. I think everyone else had the same idea, though, because there were only a couple raggedy-looking salmon fillets left in the case. They were so small that by the time I cut off the skin there would be nothing left of them.

Looking around the seafood case, I noticed some nice tilapia, red snapper, and a Chilean sea bass filet. There weren't enough of any one fish to feed all three of us, so I bought one of each. I was especially excited about the sea bass, because I've heard good things about it but never actually tried it.

I seasoned and broiled them all, and I have to say...I don't think the sea bass was worth the price. It stayed moister than all the rest, but I didn't really care for the flavor. It was very fishy...but maybe because it was pre-packaged. It could have been yesterday's fish. Still...unimpressed.

*My 15-year-old brother can do a perfect Napoleon Dynamite impression. He can also do Napoleon's brother pretty well. The poor kid...once we discovered he had this talent, we were relentless. "Jared, do 'you gonna eat those tots'!" "How about a 'it's flippin' sweet', huh?" "Jared, go feed Tina!" "Jared, tell us about the liger!" And when we couldn't think of any more Napoleon, we moved on to the brother--"Tell us about your online girlfriend."

After a day or so of this, I think he asked us to drive him home just out of self-defense. :)
