Seafood Pot

I told Husband that I was making Seafood Pot for lunch today and his eyes got really big and he said "You're making what?" in a some what surprised voice. To which I repeated the recipe title and mentioned that it was a blog recipe. "Oh, so it's a pot full of seafood." he says with the wire connecting. Then I realized he thought I was gonna roll some kinda seafood laced monster joint for an afternoon activity -which makes no sense at all BTW, maybe 10 years ago but not these days. Anyhow, after making this dish I'm thinking that a monster doob would have been a way better idea. I'm totally disappointed with this dish. It just wasn't what I was looking for. Maybe I just didn't have the right atmosphere going on to enjoy this dish?? I don't know. I do believe that part of making any experience enjoyable is the atmosphere - perhaps this is more a dinner party type dish as opposed to a Sunday afternoon watching Ang Lee's Hulk on the couch dish.....Or maybe I was just subconsciously wishing that it was 1999 and I was listening to Cypress Hill and havin' a regular good ol' time. What ever the reason this did not please my palate. I will say that I think this recipe is a great start to a lovely creamy baked seafood pasta. And that this what I plan on turning the leftovers into.

I think my mom would like this dish because she is a hardcore seafood lover - me I'm not so hard core on the seafood front. If you are hardcore into eating ocean life then yes, give this a try. But make sure you have a really and truly fabulous bread to dip into buttery wine sauce that will make all the difference with this dish. I actually think a fabulous crusty bread should be listed as an ingredient with this because that's how strongly I feel it's necessary to complete this dish.
