Our Anniversary was yesterday but we went to visit family so we had our dinner today. My Wife wanted steak and lobster and I wanted to try a new scallop recipe so thats what was on the menu. Picked up a couple of steaks. They were marked Prime John Wayne steaks. I think they are New York strips, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

First cooked up some corn and potatoes

Some green beans and mushrooms on the wok.

Scallops. Cooked with just a little oil and sprinkled with some Seafood Splash. When they were just about done I threw some butter that had some minced ginger and green onion I had prepared earlier.

My plate. Steaks were really good and at only $5.99/lb! I need to go get some more. The scallops were probably the best I have ever had and mushrooms and green beans just go together.

Thanks for looking.
 
Happy Anniversary! The meal looks great, and those scallops do look amazing. The steak looks like a top sirloin that was cut on the bias. The little piece of meat on the end looks like a piece of Tri Tip.
 
Happy anniversary Vermin. Your dinner looks fantastic as always. The scallops in that CI pan look bitchen (dated expression, I know). Hows the built in bar and grilling area coming along?
 
Good job. Now I have occaionally wore the same pair of BVD's for 18 years so dont get too carried away with the longevity issues. Me and the Little Bride will be celebrating 42 years or so of imprisonment er I mean wedded bliss come Oct. Congrats. In my view everybody should be married at least once just to figger out how it feels.
