A recipe is likened to a personal expression of poetry/prose... When shared with others, it extends a part of our innermost being... For others to enjoy for years to come, not short lived like a rose. A recipe takes on our individuality and culinary expression, talent and skill... Brings to mind the likes/dislikes of family and friends, memories of special gatherings... Sharing a part of ourselves with others, making memories, spanning time our "appetites" they fill.

Paula, This shrimp recipe sounds delicious. I have a function that I need to take an appetizer, I think I'll take your recipe. Nothing like a yummy shrimp recipe. Thanks for sharing.

Carolyn, I first made this for an engagement party that I catered. It is in the footed Tuscan bowl on the left. It is SO tasty!
