Probably the best rebus I've come across on this whole site. Good job. And nice recipe.

a great recipe/puzzle!

good puz, don't like fish :)

I made it~you'll eat it.

Trish - Your wordplay is cookin'!! :<)

But, don't try to force the Irish to eat fish. :<(

We were force fed it every Friday. 8<O

EXACTLY .... Robert

Oh my gosh. Robert, you just explained why I don't like fish. I never made that connection. But it's true.

why is/was eating fish on Friday wrong?

Sarah, Catholics were supposed to eat no meat on Friday, but fish was OK. So many Catholics developed a healthy dislike for fish (especially those whose mothers couldn't cook fish well).

Thanks for the explaination, Joe. I was raised Episopalian so we could eat meat on Friday but my mom used to make us eat liver -- and for no religious reason -- and I can't stand liver. The Hassidic Jewish can't have meat and dairy at the same meal; they even have to have two sets of cooking pans, etc - one to cook dairy and one to cook meat.

[shudder]

Wow, this has turned into quite a history lesson.. thanks everyone :)

That's what is so great about this site. The accidental education one receives (besides the brain stimulation).

Glad I stumbled on this rebus! It made me groan and smile at the same time. That's the best kind.

Glad I looked at the comments, too.
