tuesday drama, pasta, and mocha

It's so hard to plan a date with my girl Kris because our work and travel schedules seem to always get in the way. So when last Tuesday posed as an opportunity for a get together we decided to turn it into a 30 going on 13 slumber party to make up for lost time.

She made some edemame for us to munch on while we cooked up some garlic pasta + shrimp and scampi.



shrimp & scallop scampi

ingredients:

juice of 2 lemons
3 tablespoons of melted butter
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1 teaspoon old bay
10 fresh shrimp
4 fresh scallops

directions:

Place shrimp and scallops in 3 tablespoon of butter and top with all the herbs and cook in a shallow pan or NUwave oven. After the shrimp and scallops are cooked mix in the lemon juice and serve.







garlic pasta

ingredients:

1/2 box of spaghetti noodles
3 tablespoons of fresh minced garlic
4 tablespoons of olive oil
2 tablespoons of dried parsley

directions:

Cook spaghetti noodles al dente. After noodles are cooked, saute garlic in olive oil until it becomes light golden brown in a large pan. Add noodles and parsley and toss (sinag style) until the noodles are evenly coated with oil, garlic, and parsley.







We devoured the shellfish goodness and pasta while we took in the drama of 90210, melrose place, the hills, and the city.



The moscato was a perfect liquid dessert and got me loose enough to crush over Justin Bobby lol.



Mocha, the cutest little shorkie couldn't get enough of me.
