Hello, friends! Happy Sunday! Hope you had a chance to sleep in, eat a stack of Scottish Pancakes, and downed a few Mimosas.   That’d be one dang amazing Sunday morning, eh? 

In real life talk, I have been totally out of it for the last week, as I have been trying to help my dad get better post open heart surgery. I don’t really go into sharing too much of real life on here because this is our happy place, right?! And I love happiness! 😀 BUT, right now, I do need all your prayers, thoughts and your well-wishes, please!
THANK YOU! 

P.S. He is a vegetarian, plays soccer for 60-minutes twice a week, never sits down, and is only 61… Doc says, blame it on genetics. Ugh.  Sometimes, the rules do not apply, you know?

Anywho! Let’s find happy. How about this shrimp? A flavor bomb explosion that isn’t dessert!

The only reason I was compelled to make this in the first place was because it was time to move on from the Garlic Butter Shrimp and Rice after making it for every meal for the last 365 days, and this seemed like a logical next step to, um, more delicious shrimp that you can put over, um, more rice.
