Mega: Low's family is major sweet and supportive. They invited us over for dinner and made a tasty kosher meal for us. We had sole (which is a type of fish), sweet potatoes and yams, asparagus, and salad. There was also frogs eye salad that we finally remembered to bring, but couldn't eat due to the marshmallows and whipped cream. Quite the story about the frogs eye salad...we showed up to the blessing the day before and Low's mom walked up to me to tell me that I had failed. Since I had no idea what she was referring to (I fail at a lot of things) I inquired further. Turns out that Low had forgotten to bring the salad that his mom had given to him to stick in his fridge as they had run out of room. I had then failed to remember to remind him to grab it. In my defense, I was not assigned this task, and with a some laughs, she forgave me. :) I like Low's mom. She's fun.
Anywho, the night went really well.
Low: Sole is a good fish but it is difficult to cook. We found this out the hard way unfortunately though. We had our pans all set up and threw the fish in with some salt and thyme. The first side went pretty well but as we were moving it around in the pan we saw that the fish did not want to stay together. Needless to say, by the time we had all the fish cooked up, it was nice and browned but it was more flaked than filleted. So we learned that Sole definitely cooks up nicely, but you need a very hot and a very non-stick pan to cook it well.
