Fish Tacos

Home from 17 days of not cooking and having a difficult time thinking about what to cook, the first thing that appealed to me was fish tacos.  We ate a multitude of fish, but none as tacos.  I would have cooked the fish on the grill, but the weather is so cool in the evening that I didn't mind heating up the oven.  I  find it hard to believe that the photographer stuck toothpicks into my tacos!
