NOTES : This was absolutely delicious. I made some changes in the recipe. I
cut the margarine from 1 1/2 stick to only 6 Tbsps., instead of 4 stalks of
celery I used 2-3 and only 2 onions instead of 3; and I used only 1 1/4
pound shrimp. It was perfect.
Nice company dish. Much of the work can be done well ahead of time and
finishing up takes only about 5 minutes.
