Is that apple juice or frying oil in the upper right?
ReplyDeleteOh god, I am so embarrassed. I had the option of neatening up and editing the fridge before this exercise but I decided to be honest. Damn! Can't you notice the organic yogurt or the tofu or the organic milk or organic peanut butter or the human grade dog food?!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteGOD!
By the way, it's the husband's, he insists on keeping it for some reason even thought the last time we fried something was about 6 months ago.
Why are you ashamed to be frying??? Full fat equals full flavor! If you ever find a functioning fryer at a garage sale, please snap it up for me!
ReplyDeleteI think if I ever find one it's going to my husband. Sorry. You will be second in line though, promise!
ReplyDeleteWhat did you fry six months ago? Things I would like you to fry in the future and invite me over to eat:
ReplyDeleteDonuts
French fries
Tempura vegetables
Onion rings
A Twinkie (just to try it)
And apparently deep frying can be healthy:

Well, 6 months ago we had a fry fest! I made homemade donuts and that night fried chicken and french fries.
ReplyDeleteWhen I fry I like to fry.
Firstly, I'll add that 3 dozen eggs, Mojie? Does husband = Gaston?
ReplyDeleteSecondly, I agree wholeheartedly with EBiddie: frying is not shameful. We had a Fry Daddy at the house after a stupendously awkward Southern food night at Chez Face. MeatMan and I proceeded to buy everything potatoe and stick it in the days-old oil and crank that baby up. And when I say "everything potatoe," I mean anything that has been shredded, pressed, processed and frozen (golden crowns, tots, Zesties and the like). I highly recommend, but would never eat outside my 4 walls and personal Couch Jedi uniform.
Let me be clear that I didn't ask to cause embarassment (I being the proud owner of a yet to be used deep frying device myself) but simply to clarify.
ReplyDeleteAlso - why you no fry me nothing?
clarify that the husband and I are whiskey tango?
ReplyDeleteyou want something fried bring your fry daddy over and we can have a frickin' fry fest beeeeatch!
as far as the eggs go, I have NO explanation for that.
ReplyDeleteWilliam and gfd- let's have a fry fest and we can fire up the new propane firepit!!
During the summer I'm a BoozeFace and have a weakness for puns, but if I promise to be good, may I be included in any & all fry-fests?! May we do so to the stylings of Clarkson? And what deliciousness should I bring from Cafe Shaw's???
ReplyDeleteCordially,
The Self Inviter (TACKY)
I am all about the self inviting! However, I think fry fest should be asap like Friday or sunday night??
ReplyDeleteHaha, sure! I'm living at Casa de Banana-Calvin-Oscar for the next two weeks. So Sunday might be the perfect time to indulge and glutton away the exhaustion of moving weekend.
ReplyDelete(Oh and guess who's truck we're using? Mike Ruffalo's!)
Steph, if you hadn't done so yourself, I definitely would have invited you (to someone else's party -- TACKY), because there's nothing like a party guest who can make chocolate sound like health food and justify frying tater tots. I'm counting on you to make me believe that alcohol consumption is akin to drinking from the fountain of youth, & we won't talk about toast.
ReplyDeleteFriday isn't so good for me & mine, but Sunday should work.
I like it! William? gfd?
ReplyDeleteyes! gfd, will "yours" be joining us? William? you are kind of key ingredient here since you are the one with the fry daddy!!
ReplyDeletefried dough
ReplyDeleteFrench fries
Oreos
spring rolls
snickers
onion rings
veggies tempura style
these are the things (and more if peeps want) that I think we should fry! I could be in charge of prepping the spring rolls and French fries.
I'm afraid I have to break the hearts (though perhaps simultaneously save them from attacks) of all potential fry-festers. . .at least for this Sunday. I'll be on the Cape Sunday through Tuesday (envy me not, it's far from "vacation" - in fact, the opposite as it's work and it's not the most luxurious of accommodations.)I am, however, certainly game for a rescheduled fest.
ReplyDeleteAlso - I think, and Kater please correct me if I'm wrong, that Mojie's fridge has elicited more comments than any bl*g post to date. Silent Timmy certainly deserves some credit there!
fuck it, I'm buying a fry daddy for deep fry fest. sunday it is!
ReplyDeleteF**K is right! I can't come on Sunday and think it's completely inappropriate to have a fry fest without me. How about Tuesday night so I (AND William) can come??
ReplyDeleteMojie, now can I have the first fryer you find at a garage sale??
Oh no, fry fest is on for Sunday! However, I feel there will be more then one fry fest this summer in shangri la.
ReplyDeleteYes, first fryer I find goes to you EBiddie, unless of course, I find it Saturday morning whilst saleing!
Also, I assume the yachtsman will be joining us, how bout the meatman?
ReplyDeleteI'll work on the MeatMan, however, it is moving day and he may be too tuckered out. I shall never tire of frying, so I shall be there in spades. (More details of what I can bring should be discussed other than on this blog.) But how about one Banana and potentially a kneeless wonder named Calvin? I shan't want to overly self-invite, but Banana is a wizz with food and those types are always a welcome addition.
ReplyDeleteUm, yeah! Obviously! I love me some nanner and calvin, maybe that cute Oscar could come too!?!??!
ReplyDeleteI will wrangle up some Oscar, Calvin and perhaps a Maegan - we will work out the things to fry in the days to come. I will gladly bring snickers, oreos and a special type of pressed potatoe to share! Oooh, and maybe some meat (unless we have veggies joining us... in which case, I'll abstain for the greater good)!
