Claypot Fish Head Soup

Very delicious claypot fish soup prepared by the hub.  A comforting hometown dish especially in the fall season, a soup that nourishes the body and the soul! Halibut collar was used but it tasted just as good as fish head. The natural milky taste of the soup and the tender fish meat of the halibut paired so well!

 What is this white mass floating on the watercress?

                                                   It is a pretty white duck!

                            Beautiful spring lake where we collected our spring water.
