Happy Birthday Cory!

Since Cory is not a fan of getting gifts on his birthday, I cooked him a special seafood dinner in his honor. He thought I slaved all day over this meal, but really with just a little prep, it was a snap to whip up (about an hour).
We had lobster...
Shrimp & cocktail sauce
Bruschetta on fresh bread, toasted
Mussles in a white wine sauce over whole wheat pasta
It was delish...we all scored because we got to share with the birthday boy!
It was Scarlett's first time to try mussles...she loved them.
Her brother watched nearby...as he was NOT trying any.
Made this chocolate cake for dessert...Cory loves chocolate so much he believes it should be it's own food group!
We dined well tonight...all 4.5 of us!
It was great to relax, enjoy and celebrate together!
