call me dorky spice


so i made a new years resolution, against my better judgment that i am only setting myself up for failure.

this year (and hopefully a full-on morph) i am going to try to make dinner AT LEAST twice a week for LPH and me. i know, some of you out there are thinking, "at least twice? shouldn't you be shooting higher?" to which i say, refer to the first line. trying not to set myself up for failure.

additionally, between mine and LPH's schedules, we really are only here to eat dinner together about twice a week. he has late meetings, i try to hit my gym's group classes about twice a week that are late evening, and about 2 nights a week i make it home, grab my book, get in bed, and promptly fall asleep. so i think two nights a week is a lofty goal.

tonight i started the resolution off right. i would normally take pictures and try to be cutesy like that. however, i just made dinner and cleaned up...way too tired to be that ambitious. so here is what i made tonight...delicious, might i add.

Shrimp Curry
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
1 tsp onion
1 tsp curry powder
1/4 tsp paprika (a party in your mouth)
7 oz of shrimp
1/4 cup of sour cream
green pepper
chopped tomatoes
3 cups cooked rice

start rice...

in another saucepan, combine mushroom soup, onion, green pepper, tomatoes, paprika, and curry powder. bring to boil. stir in shrimp, return to boil. reduce heat and simmer 5-10 minutes.

stir in sour cream. spoon mixture over hot rice.

Serves 2!
