something is wrong with fish you can either smell it or taste it immediately Everyone enjoyed my broiled halibut and there wasnt smidge left on any of the plates This morning had three calls from guests who wanted to know if we were sick last night because Mrs Big Mouth had called to say she was deathly ill and was sure it was the fish Im beginning to think the woman made up the story just to undermine my reputation as hostess What do you think Its Hell Io lie Envied Dear ICinicd Its possible but not likely cant imagine person fabricating such fishy story just for the lialibtit Since no one else became ill its safe to assume that the woman did not get sick because of anything she ate in your home It was probably something sheateclsewhere Dear Ann Landirs Recently in your column there
