Spicy Island Shrimp Recipe
Posted 7-19-11: The best news I have heard in a long time was when they said the “oil leak” was capped. Even if it only lasted for 10 minutes, it was good to hear. So many people have been affected by this.
So now it’s up to all of us to support the Gulf Coast businesses. So eat seafood from the Gulf!
