No need to pull out multiple pots and pans for this Baked Shrimp Scampi. The entire dish is baked in the oven!

Do you ever feel like you just can’t catch a break? We do. To be fair, we know we’re really lucky. Both Laura and I are in good health, and Robbie is a wonderful (wonderfully exhausting, that is!) toddler. But when it comes to having work done around the house, we just have terrible luck. In general, we’re more ‘do-it-yourself’ type of folks, but there are just some things where I draw the line. Like installing an escape window in the basement. Or tearing out and re-laying a new driveway. Or anything electrical. That’s where I call someone.

But calling someone seems to rarely work out in our favor. I generally like to keep things upbeat here on the blog, but some of these situations just blow my mind! There was the time we had to call the police on our painter…the first week in our new house. (I can’t imagine what the neighbors thought of that one.) And then the other day, I walked into the house and heard a gigantic CRACK! I actually ducked and covered my head it was so loud. I looked up and saw this.
