Cream and Seafood Sauce
"I copied this recipe years ago out of a cookbook a friend received for Christmas. It has been one of my favorite pasta recipes ever since. I can't stand mushrooms, so I never use them. I also use lobster meat sometimes. Imitation crab and/or lobster meat works well in a pinch. Sauce tends to thicken after removed from heat. Since the recipe was listed as a sauce, it didn't give an exact amount of pasta. It simply recommended using a shell or curly type. I'm guessing 6-8 ounces is how much I use and I usually use rotini. Cooking the pasta isn't included in cooking time."

The pics are of my favorite band, Night Ranger. All pics of me were too large for the site...sorry! But since nranger7 is my name, it kinda fits to have a pic of them!
I enjoy baking in my spare time. My coworkers love me because I regularly bring them cookies. I recently started dabbling in baking pies too. I've been told I should bake for a living, but I'm sure it wouldn't be as fun if I HAD to do it all the time! :)
