Shrimp Scampi

Don’t you just love it when you feel like you could
just reach out and take a bite?

Well, that is what my friend said when she saw this photo I took of the dinner I made.

I think cooking is often easier than baking, very little measuring required-guessing works

Shrimp Scampi is a classic dish that can be served ANYTIME!
