Golden Sea Bass (Corvina), From Costa Rica 14.95/lb. Great white fish for my famous Broil/Bake method. Okay class; remember how we do this? Dot with butter, sprinkle with seasoned salt and pepper, place under pre-heated broiler for 5 minutes or so. Just until you see a little browning, then turn oven to ‘bake' at 350 for another 5 or 9 minutes, depending upon thickness of fish.
Call or email us to place your order for:

Tray #1 $35 50 Large Shrimp
We cook these beautiful shrimp (26/30 per pound) just for you; peeled and deveined, of course, on a sturdy black plastic tray with our home made cocktail sauce, decorated with greens and lemon. Serves 5 - 8 people.
Tray #2 $60 100 Large Shrimp
Just like those yummy shrimp on Tray #1, above, but twice as many! Serves 12, if you have other food, or just me and my brother Joe.
Tray #3 $80 150 Large Shrimp
We cook these beautiful shrimp (26/30 per pound) just for you; peeled and deveined, of course, on a sturdy black plastic tray with our home made cocktail sauce, decorated with greens and lemon. Serves about 15 people.
Tray #4 $75 100 Large Shrimp + 1 ½ lbs of Absolutely Fresh Smoked Salmon
Same large shrimp as on the above tray, about 28 shrimp per pound. Plus, we smoke our own fresh salmon with a blend of Wisconsin fruitwoods and hardwoods. All on a sturdy black plastic tray with our home made cocktail sauce, decorated with greens and lemon. Oh, and that white sauce you see is our home made dill sauce. Being Scandinavian, I just HAVE to have my dill sauce! Comes with crackers, too, for the Smoked Salmon. Serves 15.
Tray #5 $60 50 Jumbo Shrimp
Beautiful Jumbo Shrimp (16/20 per pound) cooked by us, just for you; peeled and deveined, of course, on a sturdy black plastic tray with our home made cocktail sauce, decorated with greens and lemon. Bigger is better, as they say, but the shrimp disappear faster. Serves 8.

Serves 15.
Tray #8 $135 100 Jumbo Shrimp
+ ¾ lb Traditional Smoked Salmon, and also ¾ lb Cajun Smoked Salmon
Jumbo Shrimp, cooked just until done; succulent and tender. Plus, we smoke our own fresh salmon with a blend of Wisconsin fruitwoods and hardwoods. The Cajun spice adds some zip, I can tell you. All on a sturdy black plastic tray with our home made cocktail sauce, decorated with greens and lemon. Oh, and that white sauce you see is our home made dill sauce. Being Scandinavian, I just HAVE to have my dill sauce! Comes with crackers, too, for the Smoked Salmon. Serves 18 - 25 people.

A Conversation with Jesus:
Many times when I am troubled or confused, I find comfort in sitting in my back yard and having a scotch and soda along with a quiet conversation with Jesus. This happened to me again after a particularly difficult day.
I said "Jesus, why do I work so hard?" And I heard the reply: "Men find many ways to demonstrate the love they have for their family. You work hard to have a peaceful, beautiful place for your friends and family to gather."
I said: "I thought that money was the root of all evil." And the reply was: "No, the LOVE of money is the root of all evil. Money is a tool; it can be used for good or bad".
I was starting to feel better, but I still had that one burning question, so I asked it. "Jesus," I said, "What is the meaning of life? Why am I here?"
He replied," That is a question many men ask. The answer is in your heart and is different for everyone. I would love to chat with you some more, Señor, but now, I have to finish your lawn."

And don't forget about the soups! By the gallon or by the pint.

A blonde and her husband are lying in bed listening to the next door neighbor's dog. It has been in the backyard barking for hours and hours.
The blonde jumps up out of bed and says, "I've had enough of this."
She goes downstairs.
The blonde finally comes back up to bed and her husband says, "The dog is still barking. What have you been doing?"
The blonde says, "I put the dog in OUR backyard. Let's see how THEY like it."
