I had a light breakfast and am starving! I was craving some shrimp today but was not sure how I was going to prepare it when I finally decided on some pasta. I kept debating about how or where I was going to spend my SuperBowl Sunday...but my sister was here this week and she has been sick. And after a few days of being cooped up in the house with her, guess who is sick now? So my SuperBowl party plans have turned into a party of one.
I have not watched the entire game since I am not a fan of either team; but I am catching bits and pieces and enjoying some of the commercials. I am a huge Madonna fan but must admit that I was not overly impressed with the half-time show, though she looks fantastic and the graphics were amazing.
What I am looking forward to is the season opener of The Voice...that is, if I can stay awake that long.

This is my type of pasta...with seafood and veggies! Delish!
