Liking someone is playing havoc with my eating It's about the only thing that does stop me from eating
Had a good day today. I'm helping cover a couple of staff holidays at the vets, so will be going in 9-1(ish) Tues-Thurs. First day went well and I was even brave enough to sort out the snakes by myself without asking for help. I love snakes, but haven't had a lot of experience with them and these ones are a few feet long. Cool tho!! Got to do a lot of other stuff too. And the vet received the paper work to do my reference for the job I'm after. We got halfway through it today *gulp*

Don't think it's gonna go anywhere with date guy :sigh:
Had something quite sad happen at the vets today, but it was overall a really nice shift. Back tomorrow for my last day of cover.
Got weighed today too and the scales in Boots (the same ones I always use) say that I have gotten shorter and put on 1lb Ah well, didn't really expect a loss this week after such a good one last week. But to put on?! If anything, I haven't been eating enough. I'm away for a few days ext week too (going to stay with friends in Leeds Wed-Sun) so that's bound to have a bad effect on my weight. Bugger!!

Hiya,

Just a quick (and probably stupid) question? How do you do your salt & pepper SW chips, is it literally salt & pepper on them or like a batter thing like when you get salt & pepper prawns etc from the chippy?

 

[Loopeylou]

Just wanted to say well done on getting through exam, fingers crossed you get the results you want in Aug
xx

 

[cheekychinchilla]

Thank you LoopeyLou

SaraC, I found the basic recipe on a thread on here somewhere. I have changed it a bit tho I do SW chips as normal, with whatever seasoning you like (I use Tabasco, Cajun spice, salt, and pepper) then 5 mins before they're done I start frying some onions. Then I add the chips to the onions, spray with a bit more frylight, add a bit more seasoning, and gently fry for 5-ish minutes.
