Best Friend

This is my husband's best friend these days...

...a deep fryer.

My aunt Geraldine gave us this at our Kitchen Shower.  Deep fryers have definitely changed a lot since I was a little girl.  Brad has fallen in LOVE with this thing.  All weekend he was wanting to fry stuff.  Yesterday afternoon, he was in the kitchen asking me if we had any ranch dressing.  I was like why in the world do you need some ranch dressing.  He said "I am going to make us a snack."  I was thinking what are you going to make that we need ranch dressing to go with it.  He was using the deep fryer to fry some potatoes, to make them like chips.  I can actually say, they were very good!! 

Later he was wanting to use it again, so we decided to have fried pork chops and string bean casserole for supper.  I told him after we ate that we had to start a diet today, because eating this fried food is going to make me gain some weight.  His response was, can we at least use it on the weekends...hahaha!  I agreed to it,  in moderation.  I love me some fried food, but I do have to watch how much of it I eat.

I hope you all have had a great start to your week...Happy Monday!!!
