Contest Update! Enter to Win!

Ok...It's day 3 of my first blog give away and I have gotten some awesome submissions so far. I'm so glad it's Friday and over the weekend I'm going to be preparing some Lobster Scampi. I got a taste for Lobster Scampi this week while we were trying out some Scampi Puffs that we are planning to carry. The light sauce and lobster pieces were wrapped in fluffy phyllo dough and so easy to pop in your mouth. I can't wait til they are available.
For those of you who have not entered the contest yet....ENTER!!!! :)
Here is the link....cause I like making things easy for you. Enter to win a free "O" olive oil or balsamic vinegar sampler
Looking forward to reading some more fantastic sumbissions from you all! Have a great weekend and I'll be back Monday with a Lobster Scampi Video Recipe!

Andy's Marinated Swordfish

Hello all of you beautiful foodies! It's Monday, and the only reason I'm so darn chipper is because it looks like it might actually finally be summer here in Chicago! To get this summer spirit rolling, Andy ordered our Fresh Catch Swordfish last week and took it home to make a fresh feast for his friends. He did me the honor of taking my camera so he could capture all the delicious images, so it's time to share now! I'm still nagging him to write down the recipe for me to share with you guys...his first set of directions contained not one single actual measurement of anything. But, he is still new at this so I'll cut him some slack. Patience is a virtue my hungry friends (and one I am always told I should acquire). Hopefully I'll get that from him later this week. Until that time, enjoy the tasty images Andy took for us. See you guys soon!
