Shrimp Scampi

National Shrimp Scampi Day 

National Shrimp Scampi Day was definately not created for me. I do not generally eat seafood. So, all of you out there that like shrimp, indulge yourselves and you are welcome to my share...but save me a brownie for later. Greenery Day, a Japenese tradition has been moved to May 4th, see ya then!

I will do my best to review this comment and add it as soon as possible. Sorry, but if it is mean, crude, disgusting or irrelevant I can't post it. Remember we are supposed to be celebrating not dragging people down.
