Despite my wife's recent problems with shrimp she suggest that we have
shrimp tonight. We used to have them frequently but laid off one of my favourite items when she started getting sick every time she ha1ve them.

This afternoon I picked up some nice big tiger shrimp. When they were
thawed I mixed up some salt, pepper, garlic powder, chili powder and
chipotle and sprinkled it over the shrimp1 and let them sit for about an
hour. I then cooked them as per a recent episode of America's Test
Kitchen where you pot some oil in a pan, add the shrimp and crank up the
heat. When they are nicely cooked on one side take the pan off the hear
and turn them over to finish them. They were served with a salad, pico
de gallo and guacamole.

We will be doing that again.

Mmmmm, sounds good. Maybe once a month so she won't be getting sick again?
I picked up some frozen, peeled, deveined, and tail-off shrimp while at the store today. Jambalaya is in the not-too-distant future here.

Tonight I finished off the second half of the P.F. Change orange chicken.
A couple of light dashes of salt were added plus some duck sauce. A
smidge of improvement but nothing wanting me to rush to the store and
stock up on this entr‚e.

Synchronicity. I'm planning to cook shrimp today. Simmered with
pickling spice.

Mmm, that sounds good.

Yesterday I made a double portion of whole wheat pasta for lunch. I had
half with vegetables and a bit of olive oil -- I tried pickled red
onions as one of the vegetables, and it wasn't that great. Those are
more of a sandwich thing. I don't think I'll do that again.

For dinner I had the rest of the pasta with different vegetables and
some parmesan cheese. It was better than lunch. I also had some
chocolate afterwards, and I think I should work on making my meals more filling.

I got some frozen crawfish tails today and will probably make something Cajun. I used to eat a lot of shrimp and cooked them Hawaiian style - leave the shell on and blast the shrimp at high heat in a lot of oil with a ton of garlic. These
days, that bores me.
