something fishy’s goin’ on here
It’s that time of year when the Friday fish fries are on. For several years now, my family and I have enjoyed the fish fry at Bishop Kelley School in Lapeer. You can get your fish fried or baked. Along with that you get a baked potato, a side dish like corn, green beans, or baked beans, cole slaw, and a roll. Plus there’s a dessert table and, of course, beverages.
Just moving along the line holding out your plate is fun. The servers are a wonderful, jovial smiling crew. And the youth that cheerfully come around to clean up tables are totally on top of it.
We never fail to bump into people we know at the fish fries. Sometimes it’s someone we haven’t seen maybe since…..last year’s fish fry? It’s really nice catching up with folks, and bumping into the usual suspects, too. So, even though the school has a take-out option, the fun is really in the going. Just try to resist those Girl Scout cookies on the way out – dare ya.
$9/adult buys your ticket, loads and reloads your plate, makes for a fun, relaxed Friday evening, and no dishes to do! I’m in, as usual.
