OK, I'm there now... no Nexis or you! Will be there for a while...
ok, what I'll do is turn the sound up and watch something on tv.

full from a (sea) scallop dinner

No real recipe, but here's how to do it:

-Toss scallops lightly in flour, saute quickly over high heat (in oil
- olive or something flavorless like peanut or Canola) to brown.

Finish with a wine sauce.

The wine sauce is as follows (for 2):

*A glug or two of white wine
*A spritz of lemon... 1/4 or 1/2 lemon, depending on how much wine you
used (it cuts sweetness of even the driest whites)
*Finish with a chunk of (unsalted) butter. Butter thickens the
sauce... how much depends on if you're dieting or not.
*Add a tiny bit of chopped parsley (or not).

Serve with plain rigatoni (you can dress it with oo or butter and
parmesan if you wish) and spinach sautéed with garlic or a green salad
with a simple dressing, like home made Italian.

I love cooking with wine.
Sometimes I even put it in the food.

Wherefore does not mean where. It means why. The line, "Wherefore
art thou Romeo" means, as close as I can deduce, "Why did you have to
be Romeo?" Juliet was lamenting the fact that of all the boys she
could have fallen for, that he happened to be Romeo, a Montegue. It
was like Juliet Hatfield finding out that her newfound true love was a
McCoy.
