There have been countless times in my cooking career that I have made mistakes. I get so mad at myself and usually realize the glaring error after I finished the dish.

Rule #1 - ALWAYS read the entire recipe first!
Rule #2 - get you ingredients organized (mis-en-place)!
Rule #3 - Don't take it too seriously!

This recipe for Lime Dill Sauce with Shrimp is a) meant to be a salad with creamy sauce b) supposed to have chopped celery in it c) you are meant to whip the cream. I did none of those things! I was obviously very tired! This recipe morphed into something better and everyone I served it to loved it.
