Citrus Salmon

It's been a few days...Life happens. New son in our lives, Sheri has high BP, Connor & Cameron are doing their best to adjust to a crying Evan.... To be continued! We need a little regularity in our lives in the Quinn household and this is a step for me to appease that.

We have customers come in to our office once a month in a cool environment, no pressure, just ideas. This is where I have complete freedom to create. This is one of those dishes that I did just that.

Cheers!
