Thinking Out Loud.....

If you ever go down to Ports O'Call Village near San Pedro (The cruise port in Long Beach, CA) you can get shrimp fajitas if you are hungry for seafood.  You won't be if you finish the platter.  Remember to share one order.

Good Morning...My area hardly loose power. Thanks Diane.

Even if it does we still have heat and water.

It looks like Planet of Ice today. All schools are closed. All buses are suspended.

No BBB today

My cloth's line turned to ice. Trees are covered with ice some of them look so heavy. It is not a very pleasant day today,

I hope you will stay in today or at least stay off the ice

Stay warm Sheila - I think I would go stir crazy!   Is it paella or papaya?

When I googled I wasnt sure of the spelling and MR google asked me if I meant payaya so I used the word payaya.

Paella is the right word.

Power is still on here.  Started as sleet and turned to freezing rain.  Radar looks like it will end here soon.  Hope Linda, Deb, and Sandy are doing okay.   ((((((HUGS))))))

I thought so   I love to make this - I have a giant paella pan - perhaps 30" wide or more that sits across 2-3 burners.  I can only make this for a big group.  One time, I donated a paella party to an auction for the Boys and Girls Club and someone paid $3500 to have me cook that at my home.  That was scary and intimidating but then I remembered that if I gave them lots of sangria first, they wouldn't care about the rest   It actually ended up being fun.

Oh Diane when We went to DR (Dominican R) every day at the lunch they had paella and I used to eat it at least 2 plates and the rest of the delicious food at the buffet. I love it and now I want it.

raj...Sorry but I have no idea how to make paella maybe Diane can help you

So nice to see you are back.

Hugs

I have power!  I have been out shoveling and snow blowing.  We got more snow over night and then around 9 this morning it turned to freezing rain.  Everything is covered in ice!  I hope we keep the power. 

Please pass the paella!!

Okay Diane. We are a small group but love to eat.

When are we having this party?

I can fly in and make this for you at your convenience   But, your convenience must be after your horrible winter!!!

There are hundreds of recipes and variations of paella.  American paella combines various meats and fishes, where as I understand traditional Spanish paella does not.  So I can send various bastardized American versions or I can send a true version - raj, which would you prefer?

American Academy of Dermatology, that dish Sheila looks like something that would be made down there. 

I never tried mussels.

It does lok like jambalaya.

Just got back from a walk that was treacherous!  It was fun though andmy sanity time with my friend.  Soccer at 6 guitar lessons are cancelled.  Everything is freezing up quickly.

I LOVE MUSSLES!!!

Seems to have stopped snowing/sleeting here, Going out soon to clean up more of that 4 letter word.
