Lobster Bake

I've been so behind on posting!  I wanted to share with you a special evening that we attended almost 2 months ago in honor of some great friends who are expecting their first baby this December.  We were invited by my friend's parents to attend a Lobster Bake as they revealed the baby's gender to everyone - and it was a fabulous evening filled with great friends and amazing food.  Check it out:

The tables were set to a rustic beach theme and no detail was missed!







The guys enjoying the beautiful evening!


And preparing the lobster....










Have you ever eaten dinner out of a trash can?  This can was filled with seaweed, corn on the cob, potatoes, lobster, clams, and oysters, water (and possibly more that I missed).

Baking all of the food on the fire - it only took 30-35 minutes to cook.

The dad-to-be and grandpa-to-be....and the exceptional chefs for the evening!

The ladies!

Dinner's ready....

What a feast!!!!

Shannon's son James at just over a month old.

What a special dinner had by all!  And we found out the baby's gender is a GIRL!!!  We are beyond thrilled for our friends as they prepare for this special new addition to their family!

Apparently garbage can dinners are a popular thing - start googling it and you'll find "recipes" that use sausage, hot dogs, chicken, etc.  I would highly recommend it for a fun twist on hosting a dinner party!
