Despite my change of plans on Friday, it turned out to be a great weekend. Kevin made a delicious dinner on Friday Night – crostini with roasted grapes & ricotta, pork with tomato, arugula, & prosciutto, and chocolate chip cookies with vanilla ice cream for dessert (a nod to our first date). On Saturday our good friends Hayley, Diego, Bekah, and Carson came down to visit for the day. Lots of cheese, wine, NYC trivia, and more wine were had. Sunday was spent catching up on the things I had planned to do on Friday – namely Downton binging and some light recipe organization. And of course, the Golden Globes while digging into warm, hearty bowls of this Seafood & Shrimp Gumbo. After a busy, cold weekend, we were ready for something comforting and soul-warming while I got my girl-crush fix of Tina & Amy (though there definitely wasn’t enough of them!).

1/2 tsp chili powder

5 dashes hot sauce

1 lb frozen uncooked seafood mix (scallops, shrimp, calamari)

1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes.
