I belong to a community supported fish share. Every week I get two pounds of a local fish--usually a white fish like flounder, cod, monkfish etc., and two pounds of Faroe Island salmon. I give half of the share to my sister because she goes to the pickup site and gets it and delivers my half to my house. Occasionally they offer add ons for an additional cost, like the scallops we got this week. They've also offered lobster meat, steamer clams, and rarely, local swordfish. It's a good deal, the fish is much fresher than what we can get at the store, and it supports our local fisheries. The only fish we get sometimes that I don't care for is pollock, but I have figured out how to work with it to make it palatable. This is the fish share: http://www.capeannfreshcatch.org/

I've cooked fish for dinner every night this week. Sunday we had the smoked salmon tacos I posted recently again, with this tomato and corn salad Monday we had scallop rolls Tuesday we had grilled cod in foil packs with tomatoes, onions and a white wine-butter sauce, with chives from my garden (the only thing growing so far). The cod fell apart a little coming out of the foil pack, but the flavor was good. Wednesday we had salmon banh mi, and last night I made scallops again, this time over an asparagus-ramp-pea risotto, with more chives Tonight I am cooking steak

I was going to make tacos for Cinco de Mayo but husband was craving a burger so that is what I made.

Smoked salmon tacos from a recipe in this month's Cook's Country magazine.

big salad to share and haddock smothered in mushrooms with rice pilaf

Sunday, chopped salad and an enchilada bake. There were two skillets, one chicken and one beef. This is the beef. Last night, fried haddock sandwich. My CSF gave me so much haddock that we will have to have it for dinner again this evening.

Gorgeous view! If that was my house I would never leave. The other night, got home too late too cook a real dinner so I made a BELT. Can't wait for the summer tomatoes... Last night, rosemary rolls Crab cake with salad My niece won't eat crab since her brother is allergic so she made some sushi

Those short ribs look nice and meaty. Wegman's, Roche Brothers, and Whole Foods are all in my regular market rotation, with occasional jaunts to Eataly on my lunch walk. I find Wegman's has the best prices on everyday wines and dry goods/paper products etc. I hate their bakery, and find that in general their produce goes bad quickly. Their house branded organic poultry is Bell and Evans, which is decent. They don't sell decent bacon or sausage, and they cut their steaks much to thin for my husband's taste. The seafood department can be good, and I like that their sushi department sells fish you can use to make your own sushi. There's a huge prepared food section, but I've never gone in there. My biggest peeve with Wegmans is that they do not employ baggers. Instead, the cashiers bag your groceries as they ring you up. I find that this slows down the check out process considerably. I've tried bagging my own, but they don't like you to do that for some reason.

Chicken and rice, street cart style from the Smitten Kitchen Every Day cookbook. Very tasty and the recipe made a ton, so I have lunches set for the rest of the week!

baked hake in a white wine sauce, crispy potatoes and green beans with almonds

Shrimp sandwich with banh mi flavors. This was a better idea in my mind than on the plate. After two bites I gave up and resorted to deconstructing the whole thing and eating the insides with a knife and fork. It did taste good and there's half leftover for lunch tomorrow.

Using up leftovers from the weekend: chicken stuffed with leftover chopped up stuffed mushrooms with a sauce made from more leftover stuffed mushrooms, a leftover mozzarella-stuffed arancini and some fresh sautéed spinach.
