Had a few of this and that, including 6 nice, BIG, frozen scallops. Since we really LOVE the taste of the food--only enhanced, not disguised, by sauces and "stuff" -- this was really delicious !! Scallops, bacon, butter, and a little lemon juice were MEANT for each other. Thanks, 4Susan -- I will be preparing this frequently for meals, as well as appitizers. Janey
