He has the right to say what he said. Likewise, I have the right to avoid any business whose…Read More leadership takes actions or make statements which I disapprove. I dare anybody for criticize me for that statement.

The CEO is one to talk about someone's looks. He is downright creepy. Too much plastic surgery. He…Read More wouldn't have fit in with the "cool kids" either.
That store sells overpriced cheaply made clothing to gullible teens.

Marcia,
The Norwalk juicer is the most amazing and pretty costly. This is the one they use in…Read More healing centers, as it is the least damaging to the nutritional value of the ingredients.
Many love the Greenstar and Omega Vert.
Any juicer will do, as long as you juice!
If you have a Vitamix, you can simply blend your greens and pour through a mesh bag.
Many find that easier cleanup and a quicker way, although it compromises the quality of the juice a bit.

Hi Cathy, you can drink as much green juice as you can get. This one is great for fresh spring…Read More dandelions, after that, alternate to other greens. If you are on a juice feast, you can drink juice all day for many days.If not, simply add it into your regular eating plan.

Any public dock that gets you out over the water a bit. Looking at Norwalk, maybe the one outside…Read More our IMAX theater, or at the Visitor Dock on the other side of the drawbridge. Perhaps the little bridges to Bell Island (in Rowayton) or Canfield Island (east of Calf Pasture Beach), but parking is an issue there.

Dear Narrative Interruptus,
Thank you for your comment. I am really glad that you have pointed out…Read More this issue as it is a big problem. Where I buy my fish in the city I am assured that the swordfish is hand caught. That being said, who really knows if that is the truth.
After listening to an interview of Sylvia Earle, who wrote, "The World Is Blue: How Our Fate and the Ocean's Are One," I was horrified at what is happening to our oceans. This is one of the reasons that I don't post many seafood/fish recipes. I definitely should have prefaced this recipe with, "only buy if your fishmonger sells hand caught swordfish."
Your comment has me thinking. If you would like to email me your approved list I would love to review it. You can email me at tinynewyorkkitchen@gmail.com.
Thanks again for your comment. I truly appreciate it.
Victoria

Victoria,
I appreciate your recipes and have tried a couple with success. One question regarding…Read More swordfish, do you consider how they are caught? I had not and enjoyed swordfish (mostly grilled) but once I looked into the fishery, I decided to avoid swordfish for the past several years.
see, I am a recreational fisherman in the LI Sound and local rivers but I am almost entirely catch & release. My food fish come from the store. Thus, when I learned of the bycatch in swordfish fishing, I decided to take it off my approved list (along with Chilean sea bass and mako shark).
Bycatch refers to those other fish caught "by accident" by long liners and long net fisherman seeking swordfish and other large gamefish. Loggerhead turtles are just one such accidental catch and if they are "caught" (hooked or net fouled) they are dead. A simple Google search will list more.
If you can find "hand caught" or "day boat" swordfish, then you will know they were caught by rod and reel which prevents bycatch. Otherwise, if you care about these other species, you may wish to reconsider swordfish. Here's a simple test: if you only eat "dolphin free" tuna fish, you probably will have a problem with bycatch for swordfish and mako shark.
Great recipes generally. Thanks!
