I hope you had a great Valentine's Day, Kathy.

Our tradition is that I cook Scampi for Mrs. MacNessa on Valentine's Day. We haven't gone out for dinner on Valentine's Day for over 20 years. I used a new recipe this year - more complicated than the one I had been using, but finished product was was well worth it. Got the recipe online - it's from Emiral.

It says 10 minutes prep. time and 10 minutes cooking. It took me about 15 or 20 minutes to peel the shrimp. Then additional time to cut the onions and garlic, etc.

Nevertheless, it was well received by Mrs. MacNessa - quite tasty if I say so myself. :)



Keep Faith with the Fallen of Benghazi! Let the Obama Regime, for once, tell the Truth!

Fiat Justitia, Ruat Coelum!

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
