Hello there, Eh?

[Lyretail]

Born & Raised in Canada.
I never really liked the idea of mermaids or even 'The Little Mermaid' when I was a kid.
However in recent times I've fallen madly in love with the concept.

My dream is to polar swim in icy frigid waters as a mermaid one day.
I also want to mer-swim in a creek, river, ocean, and some day sit near a ColdSleep/Brine pool. (A Lake under the water)
Maybe, just maybe, visit 'Nemo33' one day. Unlikely realities, but a girl can dream, right?

Ever since I was young though I've enjoyed eating Dulse. And pickled herring... And---I'll spare you the list of various seafoods.

[Carolina Mermaid]

There's a dream! I wish you the best of luck with it!

[Lyretail]

Thanks, I'll need it, hah!

[Marlin]

Welcome to the site! Raina will be happy to see another Canadian mer. Make sure to say hi to her.

on a side note- what is dulse?

[AniaR]

Hey fellow Canadian. What province are you in?:my sister (also a Mer for my company) does the polar dip every year but I am too chicken.

[SeaGlass Siren]

Oh cool another one of us :D yed please tell us what province you live in (I'm from southern Ontario)

[Mermaid Cascada]

Welcome to the forum!

[Lyretail]

@Marlin, 'Dulse' (red algae/seaweed). Sea vegetable snack food. Loaded with vitamins, minerals, has a high protein content.

@AniaR, British Columbia. Really? That's so awesome!

@SeaGlass Siren, BC ^^ All the other way on the other side of Canada.

@Mermaid Cascade, Thanks, a bunch. ^^ It seems like a really friendly place!

[SeaGlass Siren]

Ooo and where do you acquire such seaweed snacks?

[Miyu]

*singing* ~Welcome to the forum!~

Oooh yummy, dulse :) I used to buy it by weight at a metaphysical store, the coolest one ever that had all sorts of foodstuffs, not just ritual herbs! I got dulse and spirulina there in bulk.... aww now I want seaweed :P

[Mermaid Danielle]

Welcome!

[Lyretail]

@SeaGlass Siren
Lately it's been harder to find for some reason. I went out looking for some yesterday and a few places are only carrying Flakes these days. (Health food/supplement type stores) That or they've completely stopped stocking it because other seaweeds are more favored.
I called a local grocery store yesterday and asked if they could order some in. I'm waiting on a call back to see if they can do it or not. ^^

@Moonlight Mermaid
Whole leaves of Dulse are so tasty! I could never Flake out *snickers*
I hear Spirulina is very popular but I've never had any... that I'm aware of. Does it come in whole leaf form, or only Flake, Etc?

@Mermaid Danielle
Thank you very much!

[Sea Pearl]

Welcome to MerNetwork Lyretail!

[Marlin]

huh... never heard of it. I'll have to try it some time :)

[Lyretail]

@Sea Pear,
Thanks, it's good to be here.

@Marlin,
I hope you do. It's super tasty, good luck!

[Marlin]

@Lyretail- this the stuff? https://www.google.com/shopping/product/9807903700344076393?q=dulse&bav=on.2,or.r_qf.&bvm=bv.49784469,d.eWU,pv.xjs.s.en_US.MpiVkF51mpA.O&biw=1280&bih=739&tch=1&ech=1&psi=7W3zUZisDZO89QSO2IGIBA.1374907875894.5&sa=X&ei=9W3zUaq5FJPS8wSW2oDoCw&ved=0CFwQxBUwAA

Yeah sure. What ever works for you, Flakes or whole leaf, and what ever brand.

https://great-eastern-sun.com/img/425821332519591.png
Personally I prefer whole leaf, from Atlantic mariculture.
:D

[Miyu]

I've never even seen whole-leaf dulse! OoO

Spirulina is only sold as a powder, I believe. It's a blue-green algae that you add into things (I put it in smoothies) and it has amazing nutritional value :)

[Mermaid Dottie]

Hi LyreTail! I saw you in the design thread, but your Orca design was so unique, it made you seem like a forum veteran. I didn't realize you were new.
Welcome welcome!
Thank you for telling me about a new food to try. I had actually run out of ideas, since I tried sushi 2 years ago.

[Lyretail]

Moonlight Mermaid,
Ooh! ok, Thanks. If I see any around I'll be sure to grab some and try that smoothie trick!

Mermaid Dottie,
Thank you for the kind gestures!
No problem, haha. There's always soup too. ('Gotta love a good thick clam chowder)

[mermaidwhisperer]

I've only ever been to the East Coast of Canada. I toured it for a week and it was so picturesque! My husband did a student exchange on the west coast in the 12th grade and he absolutely loved it! He says that Canadians are as similar in personality to Australians as another nationality will ever come!
