Both are same

At the end of the year,
I got some pieces of salmon.

I sliced, took out the bone and marinated it.
After that I served it to my old mam.
She said to me " WAO!, its nice salmon(KATAKANA in Japanese)"

Day after day, I broiled it and served to her.
She said to me.
"How delicious this SHAKE(solted salmon in Japanese) is !"

--Both are same(I mumbled)

Many many years ago, when I was a novice house wife.
Ones day I went to fish a shops
and spoke with the fish manager about salmon.
" Solted salmon is fished from sea,
and unsolted salmon is fished from river. isn't it? "

He was silent.
His mouth dropped open, but I never lost hope.

I thought.
" No problem, I understood why he didn't have anything to say.
He admired what great insight I had. That's OK--"

After that I spent a happy and carefree time,
until someone pointed out my mistake.

I'm ashamed of my limited knowledge.
Oh, my GOD!!
