Baked Scallops

My dear friend's boyfriend is away on a great adventure in Africa. He left yesterday. So, I decided to invite her over for dinner tonight.

Scallops are one of my favorite foods and Alex has never even eaten them. I thought, since I've never cooked them before, that I'd start with something simple.

The following recipe I found in Grandma's Old-fashioned recipes.Baked Scallops
