Seafood

I hate seafood, or any form of ocean life that I am supposed to ingest. I grew up in the MidWest (is that where Ohio is?) and the closest thing I ever came to eating seafood was VandeCamps Fish Sticks. I love those deep fried little guys.

Somehow, I managed to marry a man that LOVES seafood, and I gave birth to a son who arrived with the same palate as his father. Ian orders the Captain's Platter whenever we visit the ocean. The platter contains almost every form of fish, crawling creature, and shell found in the ocean. So far, Ian has loved every piece of seafood he's tried.

Today, he tried Oyster-on-the-Halfshell (otherwise known as a Naked Oyster)for the first time. These are the results!!

It is great that he at least tried them! I wouldn't have been as brave!

Ewww, that looks gross... before and after! :) I am not a big seafood fan at all, and Brian loves it and is always wanting to try more & different things. I'm glad Ian at least tried it! Oh, and he made a wonderful Joseph today! :)

That is so funny! He seemed to like it at first and then you got the best part on tape. Guess he's not a fan of ALL seafood and after that I think I'll stay away from oysters for sure!

This is hilarious! Not only Ian, but also listening to you guys in the background!
