Big Daddy's Seafood Pasta

Yes, Big Daddy is cooking again after a brief retirement. It was very good even though it was not Cutie Pie's cup of tea. If anyone out there tries this and thinks it is as good as I did, please let me know, my ego needs a boost. I need to get back in the cooking mode again. It seems the only thing that has been cooked good around here during my hiatus has been Grr Dog's hot buttered toast. Even with that he tried to bite me last night. Lots of cranky people out there, must be all the wonderful hope and change we are feeling or supposed to be feeling at this time.

This is Not Right

I am begging for food. Big Daddy is not cooking or blogging.

I am really hungry.

Experimental food was only OK.

I would go sleeveless like Michelle but you would holler when I turned up the heat.

Bill Bailey won't you please come cook?

Your sweetie.
