Mickey Melchiondo, aka Dean Ween, guitarist for rock duo Ween, unhooks a fine looking fluke he bagged off the coast of Neptune, NJ. For the last three months, he’s been getting up at 2:30am to fish the Atlantic.

It’s just a tad early, but clearly some specialty farmers have been able to get zucchini blossoms to restaurants like Petite Maison in Midtown Manhattan.
My Zia Annina would never serve them with a sauce — or call them beignets. That’s just verbal embellishment for the menu. She’d put them on a fresh linen kitchen towel, and we’d grab them with our hands and chow down.
Still, a little spicy tomato sauce is a nice touch.
