A Thank You Dinner

We could not have done the garage renovation without the help of the hub's dad.  Without his expert carpentry knowledge, we would not have been able to complete such a large task in just 10 days and on budget.  How do you say thank you to such great help?  Two words.  Lobster dinner! We picked up three 1 pound lobsters, one for each of us. I like to cook them in a simple steam bath in a large stock pot with lemons and herbs.  So good!

With the lobster, I also made stuffed mussels, roasted long island cheese squash, tiger shrimp wrapped with bacon and sauteed green beans from the garden.  It was a feast fit for a king!  Thanks Dad for all the hard work!
