My Mom went on and on about how good it was, and at which family parties it was served. She said I should make it. Sadly, I have no fish mold.<br /><br />Sarah, if you find the mold I totally want to see pictures...Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04200630721904688015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23623415.post-67315192294102063372009-08-07T13:45:15.405-07:002009-08-07T13:45:15.405-07:00My mother had this mold!

I just wish I hadn't read this before breakfast...Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01208834909529084004noreply@blogger.com
