Thanks guys. Flomo, im in South Carolina...I think I have seen packaging similar to what you have there in the grocery store. Sounds like maybe going with a pasta would be probably be the easiest way to go, and still looked like I actually tried. I think Ill just do the shrimp as a coctail apetizer. My kitchen skills arent bad, i follow directions pretty well and I have a little bit of common sense left.

Boost, I know what your talking about with the water coming out of the scallops, and Ive made the mistake of buying crappy scallops like that before. Ill make sure to buy the big ones that havent been frozen yet.
