Look what I found! I have this fake flower arrangement hanging next to the side entrance of my house. I have been watching the birds taking straw out of the bottom of it and I thought they were making a nest some place else. When in fact they were building the nest in the arrangement and now I have at least 3 new tenants.

Those miners, yep, sure am glad they managed to be brought up out of the mine alive, however, I am getting a little tired of their "show me the money" attitude ......
Cheers

BBQ PRAWNS WITH ASPARAGUS AND PEPPERCORN SAUCE
The delicate flavour of asparagus and the bite of peppercorns make this a great sauce to have with BBQ prawns. If possible, use pink peppercorns - their colour blends well with the sauce so that the bite of the peppercorns comes as a surprise.
Ingredients
· 1kg green prawns, peeled and deveined
· 1 tin asparagus spears, drained
· Peppercorn Sauce
· 1 tablespoon Bertolli olive oil
· 2 shallots, finely chopped
· 1 teaspoon tomato paste
· generous squeeze lemon juice
· 1 tablespoon pink peppercorns
· 1/2 cup cream
Preparation
• To make the sauce, heat the oil in a heavy-based saucepan and add the shallots. Cook for a couple of minutes before adding the tomato paste, lemon juice and peppercorns. Stir well over a low heat until the mixture is well combined and slightly warm.
• Add the cream and heat gently, stirring continuously for a couple of minutes. Keep the temperature of the sauce low when adding the cream to avoid the sauce splitting. Keep the sauce warm while BBQ-ing the prawns.
• BBQ the prawns until they are just pink. Place a few asparagus spears on individual serving plates and top with a generous amount of prawns.
• Drizzle the prawns and asparagus with the pink peppercorn sauce and serve.
Now that I can handle! Yuuuuummmeeeeee!!!!! Thanks! :DQuote:

I tell you, I'm going to get some work done today, I'm going to get some work done today, I'm going to get some work done today.....well....after I finish checking the rest of PT, finish reading my email, play a game or two of solitaire, check PT again......I'm going to get some work done today?? :rolleyes: :p
Fishing again next week? Sounds like a winner to me. :D

I have no idea what a prawn is but I'm all over the asparagus! Love that stuff!
So, what exactly is a prawn? It's a little dough thingy isn't it... like a teeny-tiny dumpling? (Please, let's not have a re-occurence of the time I asked what a pasty was. :o Yeah, still have nightmares on that one. *cough*Gini*cough* ;) )
...Ok, maybe not... just took another look at that recipe. So it's a shrimpy thing?
YES!! It's Friday! FINALLY!! :cool: And what a good Friday it is... I got a raise ontop of my raise! And, come Monday, no boss for a wk and a half.
Hi guys, do you mind if I just sit here with Logan for awhile? If I remember correctly (although I'm not thinking clearly much right now) at the very first Thursdays, low those many years ago ~ Logan and I split a bottle of very dry white wine. Shall I decant for us my friend? Was that really 160 weeks ago. My, how the time does go. Zipster, I'll save "pasties" until July ;)
prawn = shrimp (relative)
Prawns are good and I think just a little bit larger than a normal sized shrimp.Quote:

I got 2 boxes via UPS the other day from my brother. He told me to expect them. Little did I know he sent me HUNDREDS of pictures from our aunt (his Godmother) dating back to the early 1900s.
There are pictures of my mom in a graduation cap and gown, her 3 sisters and my mom's boss, Dr. Wells, all with the "thumbs up". I remember as if it were yesterday, and my heart hurts real bad. It was the day my Mom had her last chemotherapy treatment.
*Sigh*
