Through the Haze of a Cold

Where has this week gone? It's Thursday and I've been laid low by a winter cold. I suppose I should be happy in that it's the first (and hopefully only one) this winter. It all started on Sunday when I still had enough energy to whip up a fantastic pasta dish with fresh Digby scallops that I bought the day before at the Halifax Farmers Market and some sweet fennel Italian sausages from Abato Italian market near my home. It was simple enough to throw together and I even managed to write the ingredients down on a post it note. Somehow it took until today to actually make it back to the computer and write about it. I hope I didn't miss a step...still in a haze...

Pasta with Digby Scallops & Sweet Fennel Sausages

No energy left...but later I'll be making a dumbed down version of this Quick Vietnamese soup I have some beautiful shrimp dumplings in the freezer from my favorite Taisan Asian Market and I must a have a star anise or two and some chicken broth somewhere handy.
