Southern Comfort:
Shrimp & Grits for a Special Occasion Brunch
BY PATTI DIAMOND
Looking for a fun brunch or dinner idea that will impress your guests?
Look no further than Shrimp and Grits – a beloved classic that epitomizes Southern hospitality.
Imagine plump, juicy shrimp swimming in a rich, velvety sauce, nestled atop a bed of creamy, buttery grits.
This iconic dish is not just a meal, it’s a slice of Southern charm served with a generous side of hospitality.
Now, let’s be real:
While this dish is heavenly, it’s also a special occasion treat due to its high fat and calorie content. In the South, shrimp aren’t just an ingredient, they’re a way of life. Treat them with the utmost care – overcooked shrimp are a cardinal sin!
So, whether you’re celebrating a milestone or simply want to elevate your dining experience, shrimp and grits are sure to steal the show.
SOUTHERN STYLE CREAMY SHRIMP AND GRITS
Yield: 4 generous servings
Total Time: 35 mins.
What You’ll Need:
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups water
1 1/2 cups shrimp stock or chicken stock
1/4 cup butter
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup stone-ground grits
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1-pound raw shrimp, large (21/30 per pound), peeled and deveined
3 tablespoons lemon juice
3 thick bacon slices
2 tablespoons onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons green or red bell pepper, finely chopped
Here’s How:
In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, combine cream, water and hot stock. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Add butter, salt and pepper to the boiling mixture.
Slowly pour in the grits while whisking constantly to prevent them from settling at the bottom and scorching. Continue stirring until all the grits are added, then reduce the heat to low. Cook the grits for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. You’re going to want a lid on this saucepan. You see, grits bubble and splash while they cook. I’ve noticed none of the old recipes I researched said anything about this. I think it’s a little joke Southerners like to play on the rest of us. Anyhoo, they will become tender and have an irresistible creamy, dreamy consistency. Add the Parmesan and give them a stir to finish them off. If the grits become too thick, you can add warm stock or water to thin them. Once cooked,
remove the saucepan from the heat.
Meanwhile, sprinkle the shrimp with lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, toss to coat and set them aside.
In a large frying pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until it’s browned but not quite crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan and rest it on a plate lined with paper towels. Let it cool, then coarsely chop it. Reserve 4 tablespoons of the bacon grease from the frying pan and discard the rest. Add the onion, garlic and green or red bell pepper to the pan, and saute them for about 10 minutes or until the onion becomes transparent. Reduce the temperature to low. Add the shrimp and lemon mixture and return the chopped bacon to the pan. Saute them for approximately 3 to 5 minutes, or until the shrimp just turn pink and are opaque in the center. You can cut one shrimp to test for doneness.
Once cooked, immediately remove the pan from the heat.
To serve, spoon hot grits onto individual serving plates and top with shrimp mixture. Add one final squeeze of lemon and bask in the glory of your culinary masterpiece.

BY DANA JACKSON
Q: Is it true that Mandy Patinkin is returning to “Criminal Minds”? Wasn’t he on the first season, then got replaced? — K.K.
A: Mandy Patinkin lasted two full seasons on the hit crime drama
“Criminal Minds” before choosing to depart early on in season three. He had an issue with the moral content of the show, saying that he never thought they were going to conduct such violent acts against women “every night, every day, week after week, year after year.” He told New York Magazine, “It was very destructive to my soul and my personality.” He was worried that he wouldn’t be hireable again, but he was soon cast on the Showtime drama “Homeland,” where he was nominated for an Emmy on four separate occasions.
Joe Mantegna filled the void left by Patinkin when he joined “Criminal Minds” in season three. The show ended on CBS in 2020 after 15 seasons, and a spin-off, “Criminal Minds: Evolution,” emerged on Paramount+, with Mantegna and several other cast members of the OG series.
As for Patinkin, you might be confused by the news that he’s guest-starring on a couple of episodes of an upcoming new series called “Brilliant Minds.” Zachary Quinto (“Heroes”) stars as a neurologist named Dr. Oliver Wolf, who is based on the famed physician and author Dr. Oliver Sacks.
In “Brilliant Minds,” Quinto’s Dr. Wolf leads a

What will Kevin Costner do? He poured his heart and $38 million of his own money into “Horizon: An American Saga – Chapter 1,” the epic western of his dreams. It cost between $50-$100 million to produce and opened to a dismal $12.4 million. “Chapter 2,” which was due on Aug. 16 but has since been indefinitely delayed, has to gross big time in order for him to complete “Chapter 3.” Can he raise the money to finish “Chapter 3” and start “Chapter 4”? If “Chapter 2” flops, he may have to rethink “Chapter 3” and “Chapter 4.”

This year’s Oscar-winning Best Actor Cillian Murphy toplines the historical Irish drama
“Small Things like These,” with two-time Oscar nominee Emily Watson (“Breaking the Waves” in 1996 and
team of interns at a fictional Bronx hospital “as they explore the last great frontier – the human mind – while grappling with their own relationships and mental health.” It will air on NBC beginning Monday, Sept. 23, at 10 p.m. ET. ***
Q:Is Justin Hartley’s new show coming back with new episodes this fall? I still miss “This Is Us,” but I’m happy if he’s on my TV regardless.
D.A.
—
A: Yes, there will be a sophomore season of “Tracker” on the CBS fall schedule, but not until Oct. 27. Justin Hartley returns as an “experienced survivalist” who travels the country using
“Hilary and Jackie” in 1998), as well as four other actresses. He plays a coal merchant who makes a shocking discovery at a convent. He’s also producing the film with Matt Damon. Meanwhile, Murphy’s currently filming Oscarwinning director Danny Boyle’s post-apocalyptic horror film “28 Years Later,” with Aaron Taylor-Johnson (who’s still unconfirmed as 007), Jodie Comer, Ralph Fiennes and Jack O’Connell. It’s due on June 2025. Murphy is also starring in “Steve,” the reimagining of Max Porter’s novella “Shy.” He plays the headmaster of a reform school whose students are dealing with mental health problems. Not exactly “The Sound of Music”! ***
Director Wes Anderson’s first film, “Bottle Rocket” (1996), cost $5 million and only grossed
$560,069. Two years later, his second film, “Rushmore,” starred Bill Murray, cost $9 million, and grossed $19 million. In 2001, he gave us “The Royal Tenenbaums,” with Murray once again; it was abetted by Danny Glover, Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Gwyneth Paltrow, Ben Stiller, and Luke and Owen Wilson. The all-star cast catapulted the box-office earnings to $71.4 million from a $21-million cost. Murray made five more films with Anderson, as did Owen Wilson.
Anderson’s 13th film, “The Phoenician Scheme,” was written with Roman Coppola and wrapped on June 3. It stars his good luck charm Murray, Benicio del Toro, Riz Ahmed, Tom Hanks, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Scarlett Johansson. ***
When Dan Stevens quit being Matthew Crawley
in “Downton Abbey” (from 2010-2012), everyone thought he was out of his mind to leave. But he’s since toplined 29 films, including his role as the Beast in “Beauty and the Beast” (2017); voicing the Oscar-winning animated feature “The Boy and the Heron” (2023); and starring in two TV series – “Legion” (27 episodes) and “Gaslit” (8 episodes). Stevens is currently costarring with Robert De Niro, Jesse Plemons, Joan Allen, Connie Britton, and Angela Bassett in Netflix’s “Zero Day.” He’s also got the biographical drama “Swiped,” with Lily James, and “The Ritual,” with Al Pacino and Ashley Greene. Both are due in 2025. Not surviving that car crash in “Downton” gave Stevens a “Beast” of a beautiful acting career!

his skills to help solve crimes, including missing persons cases. Jensen Ackles (“Supernatural”) will be returning for a few episodes. He was introduced later in the first season as Hartley’s brother. Melissa
Roxburgh (“Manifest”) is also expected to return as another sibling. So, in a way, you’re getting to see Hartley in another family drama. It might not be the same as “This Is Us,” but perhaps it’ll do. ***
Q: Is “Severance” ever returning to Apple TV+? I know it was delayed, but I thought they started filming again. — D.J.
A:Yes, the second season of “Severance” will premiere on Apple TV+ on Jan. 17, 2025. It’s still a long way off, but it’ll give you plenty of time to rewatch the complex but gripping first season, in case you’ve forgotten all of the intricate details. Adam Scott, Britt Lower, Zach Cherry and John Turturro will all be back as the severed workers, along with some new faces like Bob Balaban (“The Chair”), Gwendoline Christie (“Game of Thrones”), and Alia Shawkat (“Arrested Development”).

Veteran with Minnesota ties advances on ‘The Bachelorette’
BY JAY GABLER
Duluth News Tribune
DULUTH — Marcus Shoberg, a former Minnesotan residing in North Carolina, seems to have thoroughly impressed the lead of the current season of ABC’s reality dating show “The Bachelorette.”
Jenn Tran, a New Jersey woman planning a career as a physician assistant, invited Shoberg on her first “one-onone” date in the second episode of the series, which aired last week. The two went skydiving, an activity very familiar to Shoberg from his years serving as a U.S. Army Ranger.
Tran, who had never skydived before, said she appreciated Shoberg’s support. “I’m so happy that Marcus is here to help me take this leap,” she said in the episode.
“He showed up for me, and I needed that.”
Over dinner at the State Library Victoria in Melbourne, Australia, Shoberg spoke about being seriously injured due to a grenade explosion while he was deployed in Afghanistan.
“Walking away from that experience,” an emotional Shoberg told Tran, “I want to live a life that was worth saving.”
That date resulted in a rose: a sign from Tran that she intended to keep Shoberg in contention for at least another
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A misunderstanding tests the temperament of the sometimes headstrong Aries. But instead of blowing your top, take time for a pleasant diversion while things cool down.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) A workplace problem could make the divine Bovine see red. But talk it out before you consider walking out. Some surprising facts emerge that can change your earlier focus.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You face a choice
round. Shoberg received yet another rose in the ceremony concluding Episode 3, which aired Monday, July 22. That leaves Shoberg among just 12 contestants from the initial 25 men vying for Tran’s affection. Notably, Shoberg has avoided being swept up in the spats that have engulfed the cast. Rivalries are a typical source of drama on the well-established show, but contestants who become too concerned with their competition risk alienating the woman they’re ostensibly there to impress. During an Episode 3
“group date” that required men to perform a striptease, Shoberg won grins and applause with an athletic “astronaut” character playing on his longstanding fascination with space exploration. Meanwhile, other contestants
between ignoring your uneasy feelings about your relationship with a special person and demanding explanations. A close friend offers wise counsel.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A change you’d been hoping for carries an unexpected complication. Stay the course, and things will work themselves out. Be sure to make time for family and friends.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) Aspects favor spending time with loved ones. On the job, new ideas are
mocked and sniped at one another.
The conversations aired to date have made very little mention of Shoberg’s life outside his Army service, which lasted from 2011 to 2019, according to his LinkedIn profile.
Shoberg’s parents live in Carlton, a city roughly 20 miles southwest of Duluth, and his educational background includes study at Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College in Cloquet. He’s enrolled at Harvard College, where he plans to graduate in 2025.
“You always make me feel so much better,”
Tran told Shoberg, sharing a hug after a warm conversation during an otherwise tense “cocktail party” in Episode 3.
“This is what I needed.”
Season 21 of “The Bachelorette” continues on ABC at 7 p.m. Monday, July 29.
generally welcomed, but some demands for change could cause problems. Be ready to defend your choices.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Good news: A workplace problem is close to being resolved with results that should please everyone. Take time off to indulge in your love of fun and games.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Most of the time, you are the most unflappable person around. But be ready to be thrown off-balance in
the nicest way when Cupid takes aim in your direction.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) It’s not often that someone tries to “sting” the sharp-witted Scorpion, but it can happen. Continue to be skeptical about anything that seems too good to be true.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Your strong sense of self-esteem helps you serve as a role model for someone who needs personal reassurances. Meanwhile, your efforts
pay off in an unexpected way.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Someone close considers revealing a painful secret. Withhold any judgment. Instead, open your generous heart, and offer dollops of your love and understanding.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Your talents as a peacemaker are called upon once more as an old problem reemerges with new complications. Move cautiously in order to avoid falling into hidden traps.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) The artistic side of yourself is enhanced with the reception given to your new project. Use this success as encouragement toward fulfilling your larger goals.
BORN THIS WEEK: Your natural sense of leadership is combined with a deep sense of responsibility. People trust you to give them both guidance and understanding. (c) 2024 King Features Synd., Inc.

A looks at some advertising icons
In the old days when clothes were sewn and mended at home, spools of thread were household essentials. You would see a spool cabinet in any country store, usually on the counter. They were shaped like a miniature chest of drawers, with lettering on the front of each drawer, often on a plaque or window, telling you the company’s name, the type of thread and colors of thread stored in that drawer.
This one is a different style — which may be one reason why it sold for $1,063 at an auction by Case Antiques. It is cylindrical, with a stenciled glass door that leaves the contents visible. A revolving case ensures that you can get a look at everything inside. When it was filled with spools of thread, customers’ eyes must have been drawn to
the colors and motion. Merrick, the thread company this cabinet advertises, was known for this type of display. In 1893, Merrick Thread Co. was sued by Coats, another thread company that would later become J&P Coats Ltd., which is still producing thread today. Coats claimed that Merrick thread spools were marked with a design too similar to theirs, creating confusion between the two companies’ products. The case was dismissed. However, considering the patent date of 1897 on this cabinet, its unusual design may have been intended to assert Merrick’s identity.
* * * Q: I have an old gooseneck lamp. It’s in good condition and it works, but the finish is worn. Here is what’s on the back: “Magic Arm Co. PAT. 2665.870.” Would you be able to let me know if it’s worth anything?
A: A “Magic Arm” is an adjustable, articulated arm often used in drafting lamps. These lamps were kept on or attached to drafting tables or drawing boards for artists, designers and engineers.
The magic arm gives the user more control and precision over where the light is focused, which helps when you are working with small details. The term is used by multiple companies that make drafting lamps and other design supplies today. Acme made Magic Arm drafting lamps in the mid-20th century.
Vintage drafting lamps have sold at recent auctions and in online shops for $50 to $200, depending on their size and condition.
