I had mussels on my mind. Been a while since I made a batch... I used to eat them a lot when I lived on PEI. When I finished painting them couldn't figure out what to write about them and then decided on the recipe I use. The ones I used to eat didn't have these pronounced stripes and shading nor did mine have barnacles - artistic license...

Mussels
Check musses to make sure they're alive. Discard dead
ones. Rinse in cold water and de-beard. Place into deep
pot, cover with cold water. Add sliced onions and
celery. Bring to boil, cook till mussels open. If any
don't open - discard. Scoop mussels into a serving bowl.
Dip into a mix of horseradish mustard and oil.
