Sandra, as usual you come to the rescue. I have to deliver a dinner tomorrow to a woman who has breast cancer, going through chemo. We try to not all take the same thing. I'm confident nobody else would bring this, perfect. I'll make double and my husband will think I hung the moon. Anything with shrimp he loves.
