Not to mention loaded with protein. <br /><br />Love the fall color. We might have some by Thanksgiving. Just in time for the Christmas decorations.

I suspect the culprit who put me over the edge is the cat who decided to sleep in my room while my daughter was away.

Something I don't have to worry about now that I'm on disability leave...though I've probably just jinxed myself. Nooooooo!<br /><br />When I'm sick I crave carbs. I want pasta. And if I'm feeling really yucky, I'll pass on the sauce and just have pasta with butter and salt and pepper. Strange, eh? But if I'm really felling blech, I call my daughter and sound pathetic and then she comes over with homemade exotic vegan soups and crusty bread and something chocolate. :-)Kavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719229222267994577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-70238877336869780282016-10-26T10:53:56.441-04:002016-10-26T10:53:56.441-04:00So sorry you're sick!

I have all of the ingredients on hand...maybe lunch!<br /><br />I'm with Ruthy - we put our Christmas decorations up when the weather permits...and helpers are around. We don't turn the lights on, though. Some things wait until Thanksgiving has been celebrated well.Jan Drexlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609332074458434806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-23129887288793434392016-10-26T10:51:47.906-04:002016-10-26T10:51:47.906-04:00I'm going to have to try your recipe, Sandra. ...I'm going to have to try your recipe, Sandra.

Whole meal cooks in one pot and done in about 10 minutes. Grilling is always easy too. <br /><br />Hope you feel better. Your shrimp looks yummy. And loved the photos of the neighborhood. Ours looks that way also. smileSandra Leesmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13911169281960710923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7945786327884906788.post-41044197657938725192016-10-26T04:36:51.960-04:002016-10-26T04:36:51.960-04:00The holidays are coming!

I do that with Great Grandma's Santa and reindeer set, because they're huge and we have to pound stakes into the ground to keep them from blowing over in windy snow storms... <br /><br />I'm loving your quick shrimp dish, and so sorry about the cough, Cate! But loving the crazy fun Halloween look in the neighborhood. And your tag on this: "not healthy writer", LOL!
