Shrimp Boil

Sara's sister and her husband wanted to do something nice for us to celbrate both of our 40th birthdays. I had mine in Dec...hers is in Feb. So, just the other night, they hosted us and some friends of ours for one of our favorite meals ever...a shrimp boil! This is my brother-in-law, Kurt, spreading shrimp, sausage, chicken, carrots, corn, onions, lemons, etc. across their newspaper strewn table.

Arial shot! The beautiful thing about this meal is you don't use utensils or plates or bowls or anything. You eat with your hands and that's it. Simply awesome. I am so ready to do this again!

Here we are with our friends Jean and Dave who drove all the way from NE Kansas just to celebrate with us. They had never done this before and they couldn't stop talking about it after it was over. It was a great night full of great food, great wine and great friends.
40 ain't so bad.
