Cooking Shrimp with lemons

What calms me?
Cooking : )
I bought these shrimp yesterday in their shells. Yes, I love to take the shells off and de-vein them as I think the flavor is more intense.
These shrimp had nice thin shells and I also always leave the tails on as I think it gives
them a certain flair : )
I will cook them in the juice Meyers lemons, fresh cracked pepper, garlic and butter. There will not be a lot of butter as I will actually saute them in olive oil and use the butter to thicken the lemon juice into sauce.
This is more fun than worrying about moving : )
I will add more photos as I progress.
I am going to make fried rice with egg, onion, garlic, and 5 spices; then place the shrimp and lemon butter sauce over it.

I tend to waste my seasoning yet I think I am a conductor in my kitchen and relish the free movements I can make.

I diced up very tiny green bell pepper with the lemons; sauteed the shrimp in olive oil with some butter.

I just had to take this close up photo because they really did turn out delicious.

What calms/soothes you?
Cooking, baking, beading, sewing, reading?
peace
