Steps:

1. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add celery, peppers, onion and garlic, cook until tender, stirring occasionally. Add flour and half of the creole seasoning, stir and cook for a couple minutes.
2. Whisk in the milk and cream, making sure no lumps remain. Stir in thyme, Tabasco, parsley, pepper and remainder of creole seasoning or to taste. Simmer this for 20 minutes. Stirring often.
3. Add the shrimp and cook only until they turn pink. I always taste to see if it's lacking any seasoning and adjust now. I served over biscuits, would be great over pasta as well.
