Since I'm allergic to shellfish and can't enjoy crab cakes, I'm always on the look-out for great salmon cake recipes. Did you share it on another post so that I can take a peek at it?Roz | La Bella Vita Cucinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06213914189813413673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511932079074193335.post-91917103714916009482011-09-18T08:33:11.938-04:002011-09-18T08:33:11.938-04:00I like Bev's idea about the roasted pepper.

Very recently Larry I ran across a friend of mine on Facebook too. She and I lived only a few houses away from one another & we were the best of friends back then in those high school days, but as things go, she went off before graduation with the love of her life & I lost touch with her. When we reconnected recently we wrote each other via email and spoke of how we should get together blah blah blah, never did. Kept meaning to call to meet up with her for lunch but let the business of life get in the way. Next I heard, she had died of an accidental overdose of prescription medication. I was devastated & could have kicked myself for not taking the time to spend some time with her. Sure made me think about just how fragile life is I tell ya.Mary | Deep South Dishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06030573009618096220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511932079074193335.post-620364821824950032011-09-13T16:13:00.218-04:002011-09-13T16:13:00.218-04:00Sometimes, circumstances change and we just can...Sometimes, circumstances change and we just can't keep up with everyone.

I've got to try it before our veggies are gone. I just realized I didn't make that shrimp salad all Summer. For some reason that recipe is so flavorful and is filed in my "find of the century" category in my cookbook database. Thanks for the shout out and it's such a compliment that you whipped it up for guests. I like your method for cooking shrimp. Will try it next time.Lea Annhttp://www.highlandsranchfoodie.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511932079074193335.post-53428704832345536062011-09-13T06:40:08.780-04:002011-09-13T06:40:08.780-04:00Nothing beats a get-together with old friends.
