Is it possible to beat fresh haddock? Growing up, we kids met each Friday's supper table with a diet of fish of some sort. When fried haddock was on the menu for the evening meal, I can't speak for the others, but I was a happy boy! Mom had a delicious recipe and I know one thing--- it beat the heck outta fish sticks and ketchup! By the way, this truck, parked daily on Forest Avenue, is a really a sign. It stays parked here through thick and thin, through each of the four seasons. The sign changes, but basically it's there to advertise some sort of seafood on sale, for the day or week. Today? Fresh haddock anyone?

Are you able to come close to your mom's recipe for haddock?
ReplyDeleteSimply, the best!!!
ReplyDeleteFish is the best! Unfortuanately that diet is not shared by anyone in my family, which is so sad.
ReplyDeleteYes, please pass the haddock.
ReplyDeleteWe have vehicles used like that in Sydney and in wider Australia. An interesting method to avoid advertising costs. Not sure about the parking fines! I know that local councils here sticker a car if is has been parked for too long with no apparent ownership. The vehicle can be dobbed in by those living close who get sick of it being there.
ReplyDeleteHowever, to my mind, it is another quaint thing to see in a busy city.
I'm wondering what haddock is...but that is a very original sign :)
ReplyDeleteFish sticks with ketchup sounds horrible!
ReplyDeleteWe call Haddock Kolja in Sweden. I don't eat it much, but I usually enjoy Cod once a week.
Great shot here. Though I'm not a huge haddock fan since discovering cod.
ReplyDeleteLove this shot -- might be interesting to do a series of hand-lettered signs, mm?
