seafood extravaganza

this was the feast that mark prepared for us on saturday night, when i returned home from a few days in los angeles!




mark recently made friends with the owner of a local seafood market, and was so excited to try their many recommendations, that he decided to create a seafood-sampler meal. the menu included grilled oysters topped with a garlic butter sauce, two types of fish, and lobster [the owner liked mark so much, that he threw in a lobster for free!]. it was quite a treat, and a wonderful way to welcome me home.

i was reminded, again, of how amazing it is to have a husband that loves to cook. he manages to make fantastic meals with what appears to take no effort at all - a skill that i will never quite understand and will likely never possess. all i have to do is sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor.

i'm a lucky girl, i tell you!

my comment was met with great disdain by my husband, who said, "i CAN cook . . . i just don't." lol
