Made it on schedule to Boston this afternoon! We got in with time to check in at the hotel and head to a traditional Boston restaurant for dinner: Legal Sea Foods! Man, was it tasty, too. I ordered the steamed shrimp with broccoli and brown rice. I love when I can get a restaurant-quality meal [...]

Tonight’s dinner was a different spin on an old classic. Everyone’s heard of chicken salad, but instead I made shrimp salad and pumped it up a little bit nutritionally. I started by grilling eight ounces of shrimp (four per person). Frozen shrimp is a wonderful staple to keep in your freezer! You can make it [...]
