Snow in Houston and Mayo Shrimp with Honeyed Pecans

These pictures where taken on Dec. 4th.
It actually snowed in Houston!
It did before, but never to this extent. Such a gift from God! I decided to take this shot of snow resting on the rose scrub's leaves.











You know what you need on a cold winter day?
Coffee.


Fast forward to Saturday... I made Mayo Shrimp with Honeyed Pecans. Yes, Pecans! My sister in law got a bunch from her brother's ranch while visiting him recently. I decided to use them instead of Walnuts. I've always like this dish, but never seem to like the Walnuts that accompanied it. I think pecans have a better texture and taste to it (for this dish the least).
So this is what it ended up looking like...




Looks yummy? Twas good for first attempt =)

    I don't care for shrimp (yeah I'm not really Asian), but that looks good.
