Scampi, Chips , and Peas
We have been busy in the garden today
And we did consider having a takeaway tonight
But we promised we were not buying any more takeaways
So tonight, I cooked Scampi Chips and Peas for our dinner.
Home made Chips
Proper Chips, nothing quite like them,
Peas, look people, some colour on the plate as well, and it's healthy
I am glad we didn't buckle and go for the quick fix.
Two days now the Chinese over the road has been open and we have not given into temptation
Are we good?

Sounds like you are doing good. The potatoes (chips) look good!

@Ineeddentures Sounds good, nicely done....I never used that for frying.

Oh yes Courtney
I peeled the potatoes myself, chipped them and fried them in lard
Yum

So what do you use for frying Courtney?
I think that most people here use a vegetable oil

The smell would be calling us constantly. Love Chinese food. Haven’t had any since we’ve been in Florida, but we have so many great places for takeout. Definitely this weekend!

@Ineeddentures I swear that if I ever come to Scotland again, you’re making me dinner. Drinks first.
Hot won ton soup is so delicious! Would she eat that?

We have done well to resist the new Chinese.
It's only 50 yards away from my front door.
It's a sin I haven't sampled the cuisine yet

That's a real shame
We eat them maybe 4 times per week

No Judy
Yvonne only likes Chinese Curry
And she says my Chinese Curry is better than any takeaway
So I won't try it out
Even though I like most of the extensive menu
