Oh dear. I didn't realize nobody answered your ceviche question.
My answer: Ceviche is a wonderful thing, but was the cause of my father
(bless his late grumpy soul) to yell: Where's the lemon juice? I can't
make ceviche without the lemon juice!!!! Well, that should have been a
lesson for him. Moving from California to West-by-God-Virginia, where he
had to get his lemon juice from a bottle, and I can go grab a lemon from the
back yard.
I think I'll make some ceviche for Father's Day.
