Valentines

Considering it is valentines day today, we opted for a red themed meal. And what else could we do... live lobster.



Aaron and Brian were super excited to cook lobster, but neither one really wanted to touch them. They thought it was pretty cool to see them move around and know they were alive though. Aaron wouldn't even eat it though, but he rarely likes trying new things, so it wasn't very surprising. Getting the meat out of the shell takes a while and the boys didn't have much patience, so they were done with dinner before we were anywhere near done, but that was ok, we then had semi-peace and quiet for a while.

We also had Angel Pie for dessert which is a meringue crust topped with shaved chocolate, topped with whipped cream, topped with an orange custard, topped with more whipped cream and more shaved chocolate. It is heavenly!
