Every day provides us with opportunities to celebrate. Today I invite you to celebrate one of my favorite foods, shrimp.
another foodie holiday.
great regardless of your mood.
so, they can grace our dish.
to prevent ecosystem harm.
because it’s served in a variety of ways.
I won’t be denied.
either way I’m sold.
or as an appetizer if you wish.
give your taste buds a thrill.
they won’t be rebuffed.
as we celebrate shrimp this day.
