Linguine with Shrimp and White Wine

Last night I stopped by Whole Foods on my way home from a long day of work! While there I decided to try some local Maine shrimp. This meant peeling and deveining shrimp for the first time. After watching a video online I was ready to cook!

On the menu for the evening Linguine with Shrimp and White Wine courtesy of Martha Stewart's Everyday Food, September 2009. First I had to peel and devein. I think I did a good job. What do you think?!


This was my final dinner, the pasta, a V8 for my veggies and an Amstel Light.


After dinner my friend (and neighbor) stopped by and invited me over to her condo for yoga and sleepy time tea before bed. It ended up being a great although late night.

Lauren's review: It was okay but my last shrimp dinner was much better.
Matt's review: Shrimp?! I'm glad I was in Orlando!
Final decision: Trash it!
