The chinese style is to keep the head on, so it was a whole fish still. She goes to get it out of the wrapping, and said she felt the muscles twitch. That freaked her out and she flung the fish across the kitchen and it landed under the dining table. She had to call grandpa to come and get it as she wouldn't touch it after that. Honestly I don't remember if we still had fish for dinner that night. What a baby.
Your mom IS a baby.

My mom liked to throw food in the oven or on top of the stove and then she would go sit and read the paper or a book, or watch the news...until the fire alarm would go off. Once when she was frying bratwurst, I told her that smoke was coming from the covered frying pan. When she lifted the lid, flames shot out and she threw the lid, which hit me in the leg and burned me. No scars, don't worry.

One of the reasons I hated meat for so long is that I thought all meat was like the shoe leather that my mother would burn in the oven with little packets of seasoning poured over them.
