Golden Birthday

I had a great birthday last week! I turned 21 on the 21^st, so I celebrated my “golden birthday” this year. On Saturday, two of my closest friends from school, Kelly and Laura, came over and went out to dinner at Mon Ami Gabi. 

On Sunday, my mom planned a crab feast for the whole family and Andrew came up for the afternoon too! 

 

It was so much fun to celebrate with my favorite people! I felt so blessed! 

Broiled Tilapia Fillets--great summer recipe!

I have been making this recipe for a few months now, but I don't think I ever posted it. Andrew even made it for me during finals! If I ever get a picture I'll post it, but no promises. It is dinner tonight!

Broiled Tilapia Fillets

Ingredients:

•  1 1/2 pounds frozen tilapia, thawed

•  1 teaspoon garlic powder

•  1/4 cup melted butter

•  1/4 cup lemon juice

Preparation:

Place tilapia fillets in a shallow dish; sprinkle with garlic powder. Combine melted butter, lemon juice, and soy sauce; pour over tilapia then turn to coat. Let stand for 10 minutes. Place fish on broiler pan then broil about 4 inches from heat for about 5 minutes on each side, or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Sprinkle with paprika.
