Clams

Debbie and Dan came over last night for an impromptu dinner. I made my famous roasted brined chicken, rice pilaf, fresh from the garden green beans, tomatoes, sliced cukes and french bread.

We received the most fabulous gift too - freshly dug clams... here's a picture of them after I steamed them open - can't wait to make linguine tonight with clam sauce -YUMMY!!! I bought a shellfish license to use on vacation but due to the unbearably hot weather, didn't attempt clamming. The license is good until March 2010, and I'm now anxious to try my luck at clamming - they are so delicious straight from the ocean - thanks again Dan!
