As you know, Ash's birthday was last week. For dinner we made an amazing meal together of all of our favorite nibbles. It was sooo delicious, birthday tapas! Check it out :)
baked camembert cheese topped with garlic, olive oil & thyme
We had never done scallops before but we always see them being made on our favorite cooking show so we thought we'd give it a try. I bought them fresh from the grocery & de-shelled them myself. They only took 3 minutes to cook and they turned out perfect. We'll be adding these to our dinner menus in the future.

SHRIMP (in an amazing sauce that Ash just whipped up - lime, coconut & chili), SCALLOPS(in butter & garlic) & MUSHROOMS (in garlic & balsamic)
Tada! swedish meatballs, roasted tomatoes, scallops, garlic & balsamic mushrooms, baked camembert & baguette, shrimp in chili-lime-coconut sauce served up on a super cute birthday table cloth.
unfortunately dessert wasn't homemade, but it was seriously good & seriously cute .... mini key lime pies!
Are you kidding me? You now de-shell your own scallops? I am a little bit impressed! The meal looks and sounds amazing! Please make me some of the shrimp and the scallops when you guys are here!
