Since he is the birthday boy, I made him the dish he requested using a recipe from the Bride & Groom First and Forever Cookbook (which I highly recommend) -- Linguini with Scallops, Spinach, and Bacon in Champagne-Cream Sauce (similar recipe here).
For dessert, he asked for the island treat we had during our honeymoon in Hawaii -- hula pie. It's easy to make; I just filled an Oreo cookie pie crust (just mash up a package of the cookies with half a stick of butter) with macadamia nut ice cream. You can top with hot fudge and whipped cream if you like, but it was already plenty rich without it.
Thank you, Alex, for being the best husband and father your girls could ever ask for.
