“And just like that, it stopped raining.” Never thought we would see sunshine today but the miracle happened. Our high temperature hit a pleasant 72F. Winds finally died down to 13mph out of the East currently. Unfortunately we have a steady rain moving in overnight with thunderstorms lingering for Friday morning.

We were told there were some puppy Drum caught later in the afternoon today, so that’s good news.

Well, day 3 of this wonderful Nor’easter and no end in sight until Thursday am. Three days of your house shaking in the wind is enough! Currently out of the North at 39mph.

Stay inside, stay warm and we’ll see you when it’s over.
Toadfish Fish Spatula Stainless Steel

At Toadfish we love to grill. We love to cook on old seasoned cast iron. But when it comes to handling delicate proteins we could never quite find the right tool for the job. So we set out to do the impossible… innovate a spatula. The result is a fine-tuned, all stainless steel masterpiece with no detail overlooked. It sits balanced, weighted, and secure in the hand with a perfectly thin, flexible tip. When you set it down it boasts a built-in spoon rest keeping your surfaces clean and your food sanitary. This is the last spatula you will ever buy.

Full stainless steel construction
Thin flexible tip
Built-in spoon rest
Rubber inlay for increased grip

Going to be windy for a few days here on the island. Ugly Nor’easter hanging around. Today’s high temperature was 55F. Rain moving in late tonight and will be on and off tomorrow as well. Currently we have winds out of the North around 40mph.

Stay dry, stay warm and explore the many shops and historical sites on the island while we wait out this storm.
