Shrimp boil

Thanks to our Southern friends, we got a taste of a good 'ol traditional shrimp boil.  This is how it works:  they throw a bunch of food, like 'taters, corn and sausage in a big pot and boil it all together, real slow.  Once it's done they dump it in a delicious, steamy heap on the table, usually on newspaper, and everyone dives in.   In this case they made a few adaptions, for those fussy ones (like me) that can't eat shrimp, they cooked the shrimp separately.  It was yum-yum good and lots of fun!  Thanks Russ and Elaine from Twelve Stones.  That was AWESOME!!
