Just Thoughts
Ahh, I’ve been so crazy busy lately, I’ve been pretty much non-existant on here! The stuff that’s been stressing me out is stuff I don’t talk about on here (work mostly) so I can’t even come on here and vent (but that’s probably a good thing!). I guess Phill has to put up with my crazy mood swings and outbursts – you guys get to avoid that!
So… what’s been going on?
Tonight I am cooking prawns for the first time. Haha, yes I am so excited (I was thinking about it when I was at work, wondering how it will taste). I bought a can of evaporated milk at my last shopping expedition and the recipe on the back of it sounded delicious. I knew I had some raw peeled prawns in the freezer from a few months back when I gathered the courage to buy some (but not actually cook them!) so I figured now was the time to use the recipe and get them eaten! It’s an asparagus, snow pea and prawn fettucini – sounds delicious, but we’ll just have to wait and see. I’m always a little worried when I cook prawns because I’m scared I’ll either undercook or overcook them!
Well, Phill is home, it’s time to start dinner. Fingers crossed!

You’re very brave! I’m not a big seafood fan… I’ll eat fish, and it’s only been in the past 12 months that I’ve had a bit of calamari, but I really have to be in the mood for it! Anything else – no thanks.

Cooking prawns is really easy, as soon as they turn a deep orange, they are done! Take them off the heat soon after.

Kelly – Calamari is delicious! Just don’t think into it too much…
Adrina – For some reason, my prawns never taste as good as prawns I eat while out for dinner. Perhaps it’s more to do with my seasonings/sauces than the actual cooking process! Thanks for the tips.
