Nifty Thrifty Tuesday No.165

Hope all of y'all are having a wonderful Memorial Day weekend with your family and friends. Mine has been wonderful here on the Alabama gulf coast. One thing that is so wonderful about living here, is our GREAT SEAFOOD!!! I spent some time at our beach condo on Saturday and it was one beautiful sunny day. On the way back to our house, we decided to get some fresh shrimp (yes...right off the boat FRESH). When you get the chance to buy it right off the boat, you get a super duper deal on the price. Now, I would share with y'all how much I paid, but I don't want anybody mad at me:) Our plan for some of this shrimp was to have a good ole shrimp boil, yes, a shrimp boil for three. So, this week I am sharing our NIFTY THRIFTY SHRIMP BOIL with y'all. Thanks for coming by and joining in on my party.
                                                  Blessings,
                                                     Linda


                                       

                           This is were we purchased our fresh shrimp
                               right off the boat...it can't get any better
                                                  than this.

                                    Gulf Fresh Seafood!!!!






                                         

                        

                                              YUM YUM!!!!

                                

                                 Here you see the two who did all
                                 the cooking (while I was watering
                               all my plants...hey they were thirsty).

    Linda your shrimp boil looks fabulous! Last summer our vacation was to South Carolina Georgia and Florida. While in S.C. my dear friend prepared a shrimp boil and I fell in love with the whole one pot cooking idea. Our entire family ate tones of it til there was nothing left. Wishing you and your family a wonderful Memorial Day. Enjoy!!!

    Thanks for hosting each week, Linda. Being land locked and not much of a seafood eater, I have only tried shrimp a few times. Yours looks delicious though.

    Thank you for hosting Linda! Ohhh that fresh seafood looks so good! We are considering moving out of state in the next couple years,Spanish Fort, Daphne, and Foley, AL are all towns I have looked at considering as we long to live closer to the sea. I would love to hear your input on those areas, we are hoping to make a trip to Gulf Shores and to visit those towns some time next year. Have a great week!
