Ceviche {with Halibut, Scallops & Shrimp}
We celebrated Shelby’s birthday last evening. When I asked her what she’d like for dinner she said “one of your amazing Ribeye steaks.” To which I gladly obliged. I wanted to come up with a fun and light appetizer to start us off. I remembered a time when Shelby and I met for lunch at a Mexican restaurant in town.

Dusty Miller Sundae
It all boils down to this. When I was 11 I would collect change until I saved up $1.25. Then it was out the back door, over the stone wall, past the corn fields to Silver Ranch. I would step up to the window and order a Dusty Miller Sundae.
