MMMM! ... MMMM! ...
On an Acadian history trip to the Bay of Fundy, I had the happy joy of staying a few days in Digby, Nova Scotia, the home of Digby Scallops.
The big sweet scallops. Wow. With eggs for breakfast. Every way you can imagine. Wow.
Did I say, Wow?

We used to go scalloping around Shell Island in Panama City Fl. The scallops would be fried up by my Mom within a couple of hours, talk about fresh. These were small bay scallops, very tender and sweet.
At one time the NB scallops disappeared. It's been a long road back. We were just at the Niantic Bay this morning. It was so beautiful and peaceful.
HAL: What is that smell?
ELAINE: What smell?
HAL: I think it’s the mattress. Did something happen to it.
ELAINE: No no, oh, you know what that is? I um, went clamming the other day and I forgot to hose off my boots.
HAL: Clamming?
ELAINE: Yeah, clam and scallop. I clam and scallop.
Have to be careful with smaller scallops, they can be easily overcooked
Well, darn, I sure do love them, but don’t know where I’ll find them today.
i was a day early. Made fried scallops with roasted potatoes and spinach topped with bacon, ‘shrooms, and onions last night. roast tonight.
