Our Shag Lake holidays are a good excuse for family get togethers - it generally takes the form of randomly assembled relations staying at or living near the Lake House. It's always fun, but preparing a coordinated dinner for a group of any size out of the tiny kitchen is a challenge and requires a team effort.
This year, we were a bit more ambitious than usual with a unique Surf and Turf main course - west coast abalone...
... and Yooper venison (
Thank you Dale!).
A team effort helped pull it all together into a memorable meal.

| Despite all evidence to the contrary, we can work as an effective team. |
Roy's birthday "Yooper Cake" was the only item not prepared at camp. We got it at Larry's Market...
The mystery of the missing bite was never solved.
 |
| The meal was received with universal admiration, although Olive said she liked the abalone better than the venison. |
After dinner we relaxed on the deck, then went for a boat ride.

Thanks, but I thought Olive was also kind of cute.
