Fall Sundays are the best time for me to be creative in my kitchen and treat my family with those wonderful recipes.  Tonight, we started our dinner with a simple and delicious Spicy Cajun Shrimp Soup.  Shrimp makes everything better, and this soup was the highlight of our Sunday.  As a shrimp-lover, I may be biased, but this recipe is super delicious and wish you could taste it.  Bon Appetit!
