One of the best things I did with a new puppy was to not only do the recall with lots of enthusiasm, but to also stand with my arms up and wide when I called. So now, when our girl is too far down the beach to hear me, when she glances back and I’m standing that way she scrambles back for lovings. Your sweet Nori is getting so big and is doing so well with his training! And now your shed is sorted, can you pop by Washington state and help with my workshop?

@livingtheskyelife 5 ай бұрын

Haha - we will let you know our rates for organising days 😜 Yes we also throw our arms wide for recall so they feel like they are going to get a big cuddle (which they usually do!)

It's so nice to see a shed 'make over' on youtube that is not all about making it 'pinterest pretty' but just practical and worthy of everyday life. Thanks for another fun video. I've been watching the channel since day one (ofcourse subscribed) and it's been part of my sunday evening for a long time.

Isnt it AWESOME we KNOW the end to this story?!! HE IS RISEN💒ALL that Call on THE NAME of THE LORD Jesus Will BE SAVED. Thanks forever more JESUS!!! Have you Ever wondered why the people turned on JESUS SO VERY FAST?? From PRAISES to Crucify HIM?? Ezekiel 9:9. The people were expecting HIM to set them Free from Rome/Evil. He didnt come to do that then. So he came on a donkey that represented PEACE not war. To make Peace from our sins that would keep us from GOD. A MUCH BETTER THING. They should have recognized this symbolism as Their Kings of old did this if they came in Peace. They rode horses IF they came in War. One day JESUS WILL RETURN AGAIN on a White Horse to make War against All Evil of the Universe!!! Only those who have made Peace thru JESUS/ Repented will be safe and go with HIM to HEAVEN.

I love smoked fish!! My grandpa worked at a fish house his whole life in Florida. He would mail us a box of oranges and grapefruits, and he always included smoked fish and smoked cheeses. Made my holidays every year 😊 I have never had it freshly made and still hot, but it is one of my favorites.

@charlesperez9976 5 ай бұрын

Ah! Amongst all the other fine moments in this episode,I rate the fish dinner as the finest. I am a diehard cold(I mean room temperature) smoked fish,as it marries the palate so beautifully,kind of like letting a cup of tea cool down a bit,it just tastes better. And you can’t beat chips on the side. Or CAN you? I can! Tostones. Bear with me,as this will seem strange to your faraway northern noggins!🤣 Tostones are unripe plantains,which is a type of banana. They are very starchy and not sweet in this state,like a potato. You slice them about 1.5 thick,fry them until cooked throughout,then smash them to about half the thickness,then fry again until golden. Sprinkle with salt and paprika,eat them with the smoked fish,alongside capers! The Tostones are these oval risks of fluffy on the inside,crispy on the outside potassium bombs. Ohh this is a nice little Caribbean treat!!! Good luck finding plantains on Skye🤣😅🤣🥰

With your left over smoked trout, cook some pasta, cube the trout, place in a pan with a little oil and some cherry tomatoes cut in half, lightlyvook through and toss through the hot pasta and garnish with fresh basil. A lovely easy and quick summer meal. A few capers tossed in give another dimension.

This has been a great episode as always folks. It was so cute when Sarah was talking in Yolanda and Nori’s eyes were starting to close. Willie, your smoked ocean trout looked delicious, not to mention Sarah’s fries. I used to catch ocean trout in the creek on my grandfather’s farm in Skye Glen in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. The pink flesh is the same. It’s like Arctic Char but bigger. Nori is about to get bigger than his big brother Jack Spaniels. What great boys. The land down by the water is incredibly beautiful. Thank you both for sharing your adventures with us.
