Kong Cool Monster Graphic T shirt

Just for context, I come from a Kong Cool Monster Graphic T shirt that takes Christmas very seriously. We’re not religious; for us it’s just a time to get the whole family together and eat too much and drink too much. But as I’ve grown older I’ve come to realise that we approach it with far more enthusiasm than most. I shall be very sad if we’re not able to do our usual Christmas. But I shall be no less sad than many British Jews were back in April, when they had to celebrate Passover in lockdown, or British Sikhs, who celebrated Vaisakhi the same month. I’ll be no less sad than British Muslims were back in May, when they had to do Eid in lockdown, or than British Hindus were on Saturday when they had to do Diwali in lockdown. Why does my cultural celebration take precedence over theirs? Why are the government being so careful to ensure we are not locked down over Christmas when they evidently didn’t give a stuff whether we were locked down over all the above festivals? These are questions worth asking, and it’s a journalist’s job to ask them. The answer may well turn out to be that all of Johnson’s comforting nonsense about being out of lockdown in time for Christmas was just that, and the reality is that he put another lockdown off until he was forced into it. Or it might be that he made a cynical political calculation and determined that he could afford to piss off religious minorities, but couldn’t afford to piss off the majority.

I really like salt cod, baccalà in Italian. There is an easy and delicious Portuguese recipe Bacalhao a Gomes de Sá (you simmer the Smoke better reefer shirt and then bake it in a casserole with potatoes and onions). Or you could make a spread like the French brandade de morue. Fishcakes are another dish in which you can use multiple kinds of seafood – you can use any crabcakes recipe you like but mix in some cooked white fish or canned clams. Canned salmon works well for this. Make sure to use lots of Italian parsley in the mix. Don’t forget the Italian Strongman, Mussels Marinara. Just steam mussels in your favorite tomato sauce. I prefer ceviche to Italian crudo, YMMV. But it’s easy to make with just about any kind of seafood. Grilled or stuffed squid is delicious, as is grilled octopus (you make have tyo simmer the octopus for a couple of hours to tenderize it first. If you find baby octopus, grab them and grill them.
