It’s Friday, it’s been cold and rainy all week here in the northeast, and so come on in for some comfort food and drinks…and body art!
How about a nice glass of white wine this afternoon?
And it goes perfectly with my favorite comfort food:
Though five cloves of garlic may seem a lot, they marry brilliantly with the Mediterranean flavors of the Feta cheese, shrimp, and tomatoes.
1 teaspoon olive oil
5 garlic cloves — minced
2 (28-ounce) cans whole tomatoes — drained and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley — divided
1 1/4 pounds large shrimp — peeled and deveined
1 cup crumbled Feta cheese (4 ounces)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
Preheat oven to 400º.
Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add garlic; sauté 30 seconds. Add tomatoes and 1/4 cup parsley. Reduce heat; simmer 10 minutes. Add shrimp; cook 5 minutes. Pour mixture into a 13 × 9-inch baking dish; sprinkle with cheese. Bake at 400º for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup parsley, lemon juice, and pepper. Serve over rice.

the AFSC website to see if there’s a “Not One More” vigil planned near you?
And finally, for the astrologically inclined,
a lovely Libra body painting:
