Great Sea Bass

Add "too lazy to email recipes to friends" to my reasons for blogging (see Because...). Here is a fab and easy recipe (courtesy of my friend Janice) that the Dears of Dinnerclub requested.

Broiled Sea Bass w/Pineaple-Chili-Basil Glaze
Glaze:
-6T Pineapple Preserves (I used Peach Mango because Pineapple was impossible to locate. But I will continue my search and when I find it I am going to stock up! Because THAT is what the Fosters do.)
-4T Rice vinegar
-2 tsp chopped fresth (or 1/2 tsp dried) basil - use fresh if possible, it does make a difference
-1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
-2 cloves minced garlic
-1/4 tsp salt
-4 6-oz Sea Bass fillets
-salt and pepper to season fillets

Combine first 6 ingredients to make glaze (can be made ahead). Sprinkle fillets with salt & pepper. Broil fillets (greased pan) for 5 minutes. Brush with glaze. Broil 5 more minutes until fish flakes easily. I ended up cooking longer because I like my fish more well-done.

My first "photo shoot" in manual upon returning home from Dallas and "Mamarazzi Bootcamp." Fell in love with the photostyle of our instructor and the video montage work of her husband (check them out here). Inspired me to try.

Because...

...I just learned how to use my new, fancy camera my husband gave me for Christmas on manual(that is without using "green circle" or "running man"- which I typically use when my kids are running).

...My husband is quite quotable.

...My kids will probably ask me something about their past someday and I'll need to remember it.

...I am too lazy to email pictures and videos to my family and friends.
