Tonight we went to our favorite Irish Pub, O'Toole's. Saturday nights they have karaoke. Plus they are the only place in Florida with real New England style fish and chips, and as I discovered tonight, they also serve mashed carrots and turnips....which reminds me of Thanksgiving back home.
We went with my good friend Lori who ordered french fries and gravy. Have you ever heard of this? Dipping your fries in GRAVY?? Apparently this is the thing to do in Lori's hometown of Buffalo. I mean, as if french fries aren't unhealthy enough on their own, a side of gravy really kicks it up a notch.
Lori probably doesn't care about the ruinous effects of french fries and gravy because she works out like a crazy lady and trains for triathlons and stuff. What's a little extra grease and sodium when you burn four zillion calories a day?
However, my body burns about four calories a day, so one french fry with gravy and you can already see the double chin popping out. Thanks Lori for introducing me to this vile (yet strangely delicious) combination.
If you have never tried french fries and gravy, don't.
Cake makes me happy.
