Not the French fries!
If you know me even very remotely, then you must know by now I don’t cook. Furthermore, cooking is so big, such a big deal, than most probably when I am cooking I will be referring to it as “making food”.So today I have cooked. That would be French potatoes - no, not to be mistaken for French fries. And what, may I ask, were the reactions I got?!?My mom asked me “Are you short for cash?”, my boyfriend said “Are you going to die after you eat them potatoes” (he is the wonder cook between the two of us, but the potatoes have been lying around for a very long while), and my best friend said “…but I don’t like French potatoes” and that was as he was confessing he’d like to eat something and I invited him over.Oh, well.For the record, I like French potatoes, they are part of the nice memories. Dating back to dark communist times, I remember getting home from school and getting notes from my parents: ” There’s a pot, stick it in the oven, leave it for 20 minutes and eat”. And let me tell you, that sour cream was hard to come by during those times!So guess what am I having as we speak? 
I always cook French potatoes when in strongly miss home…
I remember you were quite the French fries enthusiast, back in school
Just remember “Home is where your heart is”. Cheesy, but true.

I think you’re a pretty good cook since you convinced me to try this recipe first thing when I get home (I’m at the office, drooling). Never had French potatoes before. I must have lived under a rock.
I will be just your humble advertiser, persuasion is my business. But welcome, I hope you have enjoyed both my writing and the potatoes.
[…] you ran out of, you absent minded silly boy! Only I needed sour cream and yellow cheese to garnish my potatoes. I am telling you, I was drooling. Cash was exchanged for the goodies, and there I was carrying my […]
that’s my all-time favorite food, despite the fact that there’s no meat in it and I’m a devout carnivore. but my grandma, who is no more, used to make french potatoes for me and it’s been my no. 1 comfort dish for as long as I can remember.
right on the money with the comfort dish! (And I de-spammed you, I hope.)
thanks
