Feast of the Seven Fishes {Christmas Eve Tradition}
Several years ago I got a hankering to attempt the Feast of the Seven Fishes for our Christmas Eve dinner. I carefully selected recipes, ordered specialty items ahead from our local seafood market, and rewrote my plan of attack dozens of times before the big day arrived. I envisioned this becoming our new Christmas Eve traditional dinner and oh how that excited me.

Buffalo Shrimp
We were gifted 7 pounds of fresh-off-the-boat Georgia shrimp a month or two back (thanks to my mom & dad in-law). I froze them in one pound packs so they would thaw quickly when we had a shrimp hankering. On this particular day, I couldn’t get enough of these Buffalo Shrimp. They were too tasty not to share.

Ceviche {with Halibut, Scallops & Shrimp}
We celebrated Shelby’s birthday last evening. When I asked her what she’d like for dinner she said “one of your amazing Ribeye steaks.” To which I gladly obliged. I wanted to come up with a fun and light appetizer to start us off. I remembered a time when Shelby and I met for lunch at a Mexican restaurant in town. As soon as we sat down she said “you’ve got to try their Ceviche.” I had no idea she shared my love for this chilled seafood salad.
