| The shrimp look so inviting! |
Apparently, Ree is
not the only chef in the family. I don’t know if this recipe was created by
Betsy or in her honor but it is one heck of a great tasting dish. The creamy shrimp add so much flavor. I
shared this dish with Jenny Anderson at lunch, and we both sat there with
smiles on our faces and groaning with pure pleasure. This is one dish that
everyone should try out.
Random Reflections
When
I returned to Somonauk, I tried a new route that helped me learn the town a lot
better. I came upon this house. Currently, it has a sad exterior in desperate
need of scraping and paint. The house is much bigger than expected. From the
front it looks like about 1,200 sq. ft. but when you look at it from an angle
it is very large and has tremendous potential. It is only a block from the main street in the town. There
is just something about the house that called to me. Do you hear it, too?
It looks small from the front

| Surprise! There is a lot more to it than you first thought! |

| It definitely needs a coat of paint and some TLC. |
Irksome Ideas and Images
This
isn’t really an irksome idea to me but it is something that totally creeped me
out. About a week ago our neighborhood was invaded by hundreds of medium sized
black birds. They were on every
roof and I had visions of Hitchcock’s The
Birds. I felt like they were
just sitting there and watching me. The coolest part was when they all took
flight and the sky darkened as they rose to new heights. I have no idea why there were so many?
I have no idea where they went? I
wish I knew if they would be back!
