Is it wrong that every time I see a Pillsbury Dough Boy commercial where they tickle Pillsbury Dough Boy's belly, I want to blow a finger-sized hole right into his tum-tum with a gun? And wonder if he would still laugh?
Is it wrong to bring my husband into every conversation I have? I never did that when we were courting/dating ...
Is it wrong to go to a Christmas party, eat, then digs out? Especially when I put on a dress and some form of makeup?
Is it wrong to tell my unborn child: "Relax. It have no need to you to stretch in there. You could do all yuh stretching when you reach out here"?
Is it wrong not to care when I know somebody thinks I don't like them, and not only do I not like them, I REALLY don't like them?
Is it wrong to never, ever, ever be serious on Facebook?
Is it wrong to be afraid to join Twitter?
Is it wrong to laugh at some of the atrocities my students have committed in the name of assignments?
Is it wrong to want to tell my nosy neighbour to mind her own Kool aid and speak to either me or Chef instead of intimidating the people who come to do work on our place?
Is it wrong to be completely unsociable and out of touch for at least one day per week?
Is it wrong to be up by 7 am and want to go back to sleep at 8:30 am?
Is it wrong to be asking you all these questions when I should know my own damn mind?

Yumminess ...
So I've been slacking off on the photography these days, but decided to take a photo of today's lunch before I ate it. Had Chef make a shrimp salad for a work get-together yesterday, and it turned out really well. Very simple, went exceptionally well with the croutons.
For the veggies we used romaine lettuce, snow peas, red onions, and cherry tomatoes. You have to poach the snow peas in boiling hot water for like 15 seconds, but that's about all the cooking that the veggies got. We poached the shrimp in water as well, flavoured with a little curry powder, the ends of the red onion and a couple cloves of garlic. And he made a yummy dressing with strawberries, low-fat mayo, shadon beni, thyme, sugar and olive oil. The croutons are easy; a French baguette sliced, toasted and drizzled with olive oil, salt and black pepper.
I think it's a nice Christmassy type dish, very fresh and flavourful, just enough crunch and punch with the dressing. Try it yourself and see.
