My "back porch" is my kitchen, my favorite room in the house. Come on in, the coffee is fresh, and I just made a pitcher of sweet tea. The cookies will be out in a minute. I have over 40 years of recipes to share with you, along with my opinion on everything. Oh my, you are right, it is cocktail time. What can I get you? Of course I can make you a Mint Julep! Stop by anytime, something is always cooking, and the back door is never locked.

Bon Appetit, Y'all

8 or 9-ounces farfalle (bow tie) pasta
1/2 cup butter (1 stick)

1 cup half-and-half or heavy cream, warmed
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined
