My dad actually makes quite good chips, he just has a few problems coming to terms with portions sizes, bless him. I learnt quite early on not to ask if 'this is the starter'? All ten chips? Wow, I'd better get my fat a*s down to the swimming pool.
You know that saying 'a moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips'? Well, when he cooked, famine stricken children from Africa's most impovrished backwaters would be hard pushed not to find the irony in that statement. Still, they tasted nice so I guess it was a moment I should treasure

Simplicity can be godly.
