We celebrated Justin's birthday/Valentine's Day with MeatFest XO: Seafood Edition. The ladies planned this second edition of MeatFest, so there was a little bit more variety and a lot more preparation involved. But I think the guys would agree it was well worth it. (Except for Blake, who refused to eat my salad on principle. Apparently MeatFest is supposed to be a veggie-free zone.)
We enjoyed broiled shrimp cocktail, fried calamari and grilled crab legs, along with a side of risotto, tossed salad and a dessert of chocolate covered strawberries and birthday cake. It wasn't exactly a romantic Valentine's Day dinner (romance and toddlers are mutually exclusive), but it was a fun way to spend the Hallmark holiday, and Justin later told me this was his best birthday every. Although that may have had something to do with the Stoker I gave him that allows him to control the Big Green Egg over our wireless network. But that's another story for another day...For more pictures of MeatFest XO, click here.
