Frankly, cleaning squid is a PIA at best

 

Maybe I'm weird, but I always enjoy cleaning and preparing squid. The folk in the market finally worked out that I don't want them to do it for me and stopped offering. Even finding that one specimen hadn't quite digested its last supper before being caught didn't put me off at all.


I don't know why, but I just get a certain satisfaction from doing it myself. (Also, the market traders only know one way to cook squid and prepare it for that dish, whereas sometimes I want to do other things with them. I never let them do fish, either. My way of prepping a fish and theirs are worlds apart.)
