Oh Those Wildwood Days!

Who knew Wildwood was so nice?  This weekend we stayed with our friends, Susanne and Denny (known as America's Favorite Guests) at their sister's condo a half block from the beach.  And what a beach it is - HUGE and in front of the beach is a walkway that covers a nice expanse of the jagged coastline (who needs the West Coast) - this was gorgeous and let me just say we don't have this in Ocean City either... both mornings we had an invigorating walk greeting many Phillie clad fans along the way............we were all still wearing our Phillies garb on Sunday too!

Our other friends, Suzanne and Kelly were also in attendance.  On Saturday we made the roadtrip to Cape May.  It was a spectacular October day and many people had the same idea - to shop and walk around.  We ended up on Sunset Beach at the end of the day just in time for a beaut of a sunset .... I guess it's protocol for everyone to clap when the sun goes down because this was done in Cape May just as it was done in Carmel, Ca 30 years ago AND Key West 22 years ago - it's funny how the customs are carried on all around the place - maybe they do it in Europe and Asia too!


So we are in Cape May and what is in Cape May?  The Lobster House, of course and if Denny is near the Lobster House he must go to scope out the seafood.  We bought Grouper and Shrimp and Scallops.  Denny wrapped prosciutto around these humungous shrimp - brushed with olive oil and grilled them on this cool electric grill...in the meantime Susanne is creating this delicious rub to put on the Grouper.  Denny grilled the salt and peppered scallops and grouper....Susanne made a nice fresh salad and some baked potatoes and it was delicious!  Nothing like a fresh seafood meal at the shore.  We settled in to watch the Phillies beat the Giants - oh that's right  - the Giants BEAT the Phillies............I forgot.



We had a great weekend though!
