    I had poison ivy so bad one year, I had to see the doctor. It was a hot day and the gold one my Dad drove had bench seats in the front.

    When he went to turn uphill into the hospital, I slid all of the way over to him, looked down at the seat and about gagged. All of the poison ivy bubbles had popped and the thick puss was just oozing down the seat, where I slid. It was nasty.

    It was one of those times in life you never forget.

    I think the girl’s name was Ivy, and she gave far more than just a good time, so they called her Poison Ivy…

    It was everywhere that year. Eyelids, ears, "the boy's", feet, armpits and every appendage I have. Yes, even that one. We had just gotten back from a week long camping vacation at Deep Creek, MD. I can say with complete certainty that this was the worst outbreak I have ever had.

    "Shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, sauté it. There’s, uh, shrimp kebabs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir fried. There’s pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That’s about it." - Bubba

    That there is carbonara, made with chicken, bacon, shrimp, garlic, peppers, mushrooms, lots of butter and lots of cream............now, you want to see "traditional" type spaghetti? My Sicilian cousins can throw down...my aunt Deb makes the best spaghetti and meatballs you've ever tasted.

    And just a little back story, my mom is one of 10 kids, full blooded Sicilian. All but one of those kids had kids. I've got more cousins than you can shake a stick at.

    That being said, "everyone" thinks they make the best spaghetti and meatballs, so if I'm telling you aunt Deb makes the best, you can bet the bank on it B)
