  1. Holy cow, this is what you made for the gang when we reunited in Chattanooga, isn't it?!? I made it once and it was SO YUMMY. Unfortunately I married a rube who doesn't care for scallops but I'm anxious to make this again for a get-together. That dinner at your house was seriously one of the best meals I've ever had. I can't wait to see more posts and recipes! Congrats my friend and welcome to the wonderful
    world of blogging!
    Cheers!
