My apologies to the seafood industry:

Only now after more than 22 years of life do I realize that I have been foolishly missing out on the glories of seafood. I decided at a very young age that I didn't like it and I've gone almost my entire life up to this point boycotting any form of food that comes from the sea. I don't think I ever had a very good reason. I remember when I was little my mom would make my fish sticks and while I think I liked them at first, I slowly began to think they were disgusting. I quickly realized I HATED tuna fish (and still do) and once I no longer liked fish sticks I decided that seafood wasn't for me. And that was it. I refused to try anything new that was labeled seafood because I was convinced I wouldn't like it. But now, thanks to the constant encouragement from Stephanie Bell, I realize that I actually do like some seafood. In the past month or so I've tried muscles, scallops, and smoked salmon. Tonight I tried grilled Atlantic salmon with saffron cous cous, olives, sun dried tomatoes, and red onion at Hot Tomatoes in New Haven and I loved it! We also tried something called Pasta Pillows, which is sweet potato ravioli covered in a sage cream sauce and is incredibly good! But back to the seafood... I'm a sucker for avoiding it for 22 years and I realize the errors of my ways and I promise I'm a changed man. To the seafood industry, I express my deepest apologies. I should have given seafood a chance much, much earlier. There's still many things I haven't tried and I admit that I'm still a little scared, but at least I'm willing to give things a shot now.
