Roe\u00a0 or hard roe is the fully ripe internal egg masses in the ovaries, or the released external egg masses of fish and certain marine animals, such as shrimp, scallop and sea urchins. As a seafood, roe is used both as a cooked ingredient in many dishes and as a raw ingredient. The roe of marine animals, such as the roe of lumpsucker, hake and salmon, is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids. Roe from a sturgeon or sometimes other fishes is the raw base product from which caviar is made.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_26062\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-080.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26062\" class=\"size-large wp-image-26062\" src=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-080-450x338.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-080-450x338.jpg 450w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-080-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-080-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-080-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-080.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-26062\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Salmon eggs (roe)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>We headed for home about 7:30 PM and when we walked outside, the sky was afire!\u00a0 We thought about going to the ocean to see it but we did not have enough time!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_26063\" style=\"width: 460px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-081.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26063\" class=\"size-large wp-image-26063\" src=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-081-450x338.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-081-450x338.jpg 450w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-081-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-081-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-081-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2017\/05\/2017-05-07-081.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-26063\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A magnificent sunset!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Home safe and sound!\u00a0 We watched some TV and Cheers and then crashed about 11:40 PM.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paul decided to not walk as it was supposed to rain and the clouds looked a little threatening.
