OK, yesterday I realized that I'd gone about as far as I could go with random items pulled from
the freezer and off the tree, so I actually ventured to the grocery store. Large Gulf shrimp
are still at a fantastic price, so I made some grilled shrimp that I marinated in a spicy
"Cajun" sauce and then put on skewers with green bell peppers and red onion. Pretty good, although I
won't post the recipe for the marinade, because I'm thinking about making a few adjustments to the amount of
"spice" -- the internet recipe probably had too much paprika and too little cayenne.
I'm bereft because it was finally time to get some service done on my pride and joy, the
EL 8.5 x 42 Swarovski binoculars. I've had them only a few days more than five years, which
makes sense because they were probably a birthday gift, ordered a bit in advance. They'd had
some hard wear, and it was time to get a service order and ship them off for awhile. The lady on the
phone asked which lens caps I had lost. I assured her that I'd lost ALL of them. Somehow, the plastic
attachments all got worn away. I think the last of them went on
that vertical ascent into unknown territory in Ranomafana, Madagascar. When you're watching
a guy with a panga cut toe and hand holds into the side of the mountain so that you
can climb upwards on all-fours without equipment, keeping track of lens caps is probably not
in the forefront of your mind.
