Prosciutto Wrapped Bread Sticks

Ever since we went to Italy a couple years back, my family has been completely in love with the taste of prosciutto. Almost every trip to the grocery store includes picking up a few slices. With inspiration from pinterest I wrapped small pieces of fresh prosciutto around some yummy soft homemade breadsticks that I made. The combination of the warm and crusty bread with the chewy meat was wonderful, and created a perfect and simple appetizer.

Rosemary Pineapple Scallop Skewers

One of my favourite parts about summer is all the fruit that is ripe and in season as well as all the herbs that are finally growing fresh in our garden. I got inspiration for this post from a picture I saw recently on pinterest, showing a skewer made with fruit, fish and some herbs. I decided to do my own take on it by pairing up rosemary, pineapple and scallops. Ideally I would have preferred to use mini scallops but because I couldn't find any I used large scallops that I cut in half during prep. I used a piece of rosemary as the skewer base and then added pan seared scallops and fresh pineapple on top.
