I'm Hungry Right Now, What are you munching On?

I have been so busy on this forum that I have not had any food yet. I would love to have some eggs benedict for breakfast this bright and sunny morn but that would require going to the supermarket and to be honest, I'm too tired...

What are you eating at the moment...

My favourite snack. Mango and Blood Orange Yoghurt. I'll eat it till the cows come home and if they don't come home I will still eat it.

We're really gobblin' up the produce at my place. There's a little market down the road a ways that practically gives the stuff away.

Last night for supper we had Kohlrabi fritters and corn-on-the-cob!

It's expensive here. I picked up some cherry tomatoes and broccoli and it was spendy.

We can't afford to buy it at the grocery stores.

Sometimes we get produce stands but they're across town.

This guy out here has a big building and goes year-round. I don't know how he does it, but we sure love him. He hit my daughter's car once with his big supply truck. Nothing serious. It was funny. My daughter could make friends with the wicked witch of the west.

I'd LURV some nice juicy chips from the chip shop round the corner but I stopped going in because they usually say "they'll be ready soon, can you wait?"
So you have to stand there in the sweltering heat of the shop feeling self-conscious among other waiting customers, not knowing where to look.
Naturally I've tried making my own chips by frying or cooking the ready-cut frozen sort but they always come out too soggy or too dry and tasteless (sniffle)

PS- there was a news item recently saying many chip shops are going out of business and I'm not surprised.

We had H. Salt Fish And Chips in west Tennessee at one time. I think they went out of business years ago. They were good, boy. Now there's just Long John Silver's and Captain D's, unless you want to go on the hunt for a real chippy, which are few and far between in the U.S.

Reminds me of the time my sister ran into her old boyfriend who was a new police officer in his squad car. Talk about awkward

I used to make my own deep fried chicken and mix it up with rice and sweat and sour sauce. Those were the good ol' days for me. I've deep fried halibut too, boy that stuff tastes good. You have to pre-heat the oil just right though.

My mistake. H. Salt sold out to KFC and went to pot, evidently. I don't know how many are still open or where, though.

I'm just in a Henri/ornery mood today for some reason Devin. Reviewing your post and recipe, so how did YOUR sweat add flavor to your deep fried chicken? Did it add a great stale odd gamey taste to it? and that's the way you like it. How much sweat to sour sauce did you use?...

Mood noted There was this great Asian restaurant down the road from where I used to live. They made the best sweat and sour chicken. I reproduced their recipe pretty exact. You really can't beat it for flavor. White chicken meat crisp with breading.

But no I can't stand the game taste of hunted food. And sometimes I get a farm raised cow and it tastes like they fed it grass, Ugghhh!

Looking forward to my next break. Made up some roast pork, mashed potato and minted peas with a fruit yoghurt to follow.

My Ingles is terrible I know. Hmmm. So is my memory

Brown rice, broccoli, tomatoes, onions, black beans, tiny chilied brown lentils, and nutritional yeast for B-complex and cheesy flavor!
