| Author Notes: | This creamy pasta dish is quite rich, so a relatively small amount will satisfy most diners. Paired with a large, simple salad, this recipe is elegant enough for a dinner party. Round out the meal with some crusty bread and a bottle of chilled Sauvignon Blanc. |

2 lemons
1 cup heavy (double) cream 1 pound small shrimp, peeled and deveined 1 tablespoon fresh minced chives salt and white pepper 1 pound linguine or fettuccine 1 tablespoon olive oil |
