I totally forgot to post these photos of my birthday dinner the other week! Jared went out and bought a beautiful piece of salmon (one of my very favorites). I walked to the local foodie store and bought some cedar planks. Added some fresh lemon, a smidge of butter and fresh dill and tarragon from the garden and we had ourselves are pretty beautiful piece of grilled fish. I also picked up sparkling lemonade in a pretty glass bottle to pair with dinner.
After dinner we walked and got chocolate chip oatmeal cookie dough ice cream and took a stroll through the neighborhood. It was a perfect start to the holiday weekend.
Mmmm, we love grilled salmon in our family–I must make it once a week–but I’ve never cooked it on cedar planks. I’m definitely going to have to try that because it looks delicious. Happy belated birthday to you!
Salmon is one of my favorite dinner – and it sounds SO delicious the way that you cooked it!! I can’t wait unti we can get a grill and try that, too! :)
What a perfect birthday evening (especially with the ice cream. mmm.)
