This looks good, Alan. You must have been reading my mind...

I have some seafood from Trader Joes, that I want to use, of which
shrimp is just type. I found some small lobster tails..or langoustine
tails...and I keep on thinking that those, plus some of the scallops I
have as well, might be good in such a sauce as this.

I think I know what I am fixing tonight...to go over fettuccine, or
linguine.

That's a shame because it is very nice.

I'm glad you like it.

I love tinned smoked oysters with cream cheese on crackers. So I make
a white sauce with cream cheese and parm and serve that over rotini
If I've got fresh mushrooms I'll add those too. It's delicious but
shrimp would be too mild IMO.
