oysters roasting on an open fire

I know many will post something sweet and memorial since it is the 11th of September. . . but I for one would like to just tell you about the lovely evening that I had with my DH and a few friends. We took a drive out to the coast in Gearhart, Oregon to enjoy the sunset and to roast oysters. As you will see from the photos, it was an extremely awesome evening. The sunset did not disappoint. And having fire roasted oysters for the first time. . . they did not disappoint either. Sure, they may look a little scary, but believe me when I say 'They were delicious!' and that's not just because I was REALLY hungry by the time they hit my mouth. The added Guda, fresh basil, garlic & olive oil really made it sooo delicious! Honest.

tending the fire . . . watching the sun go down.



Recipe : garnish with fresh basil, cheese, and garlic-olive oil.
Throw back on the fire to melt the cheese. Mmm. Delish!

Then to add to the perfect evening. . . the silver moon came out for a little while, then fell and it was pitch dark with the stars shining so bright EVERYWHERE. Wish my camera could catch them and the milky way we could see.
