That bein' said... Come on down here, darlin! I'll fix ya up some good vittles -- mashed pa-tay-tahs with some sah-weet corn and fraihd pork chawps.
(erm... fried pork chops... I confused myself on that one... )

Oh you silver tongued temptress.  Game on.    
So long as I can bring my slave.  She's useful in SO many ways
 
And, as a skilled cook myself, I'd be happy to cook you the best of British, French and Italian cuisine
 
Here's a silly thing I miss about living in the USA: pork rinds: yes, in the UK we have pork scratchings, and they're lovely, but those thin, crispy rinds ... oh how I miss them ... them and corn chips, dipped into hot satay sauce ... yum!
 
I'll cook you my own recipe salmon coulibiac [1], so we don't all put on 50 Lbs overnight

Yessir, pork rinds are one of my redneck indulgences... Mmmm. That and hominy. Yum.
I'm not really a "skilled" cook, but I haven't killed anyone and no one goes away with empty bellies, so I suppose I do all right. ;-)

Of course the slave is welcome! I would demand it! The more the merrier :-D

So.... When're you makin' me dinner? That BLT for lunch was amazing, but I'm getting a little rumbly in the tumbly ;-)

Hominy would be grits, yes?  I've yet to taste those ... but as a fan of the FEB (Full English Breakfast, cooked!), I could see where they might work ... ever tried black pudding?

Grits are made from hominy, yes. But what I was referring to is the veggie before it's pulverized. It's like really big corn kernals... But extra tasty. There are different types, but I prefer yellow hominy with some butter. Mmmmmm. <333
I really shouldn't be such a fatty, but man... I love anything fried and lots of butter. ;-)

Well I never knew that.  Thanks
 
And yes, nothing beats the taste of butter ... that salmon coulibiac is served with hollandaise, which is basically just a butter delivery system

Trust me, it doesn't need to be bigger! LOL It gets the person's attention quite easily!!

But I was fixing to do some whittling!

I’d love to carve some amusing figures in ginger, then use them for figging ... but the root's not big enough.

How about a 6 inch tall, 4 inch wide Richard Nixon in ginger?  That would rock.

<thinks>

I'm possibly slightly sicker than I originally thought I was.

oh and should i tell you that i can go down to the local fiesta mart and get a bag of pork rinds fried up nice and crispy that is literally less than a day out of the fryer?  about two dollars american for a bag roughly two feet long and a foot across (unfilled).  you gotta break the things before you can eat them they're so huge.  heeheehee

Sounds great!  I'd put on 50lbs overnight though, so probably for the best that I can't get them

Pork rinds are low carb so are a better snack then tator chips.

Best news I've heard all week, ta!

Yes. And high in sodium.

I suppose it was asking a tad too much for them to suddenly turn out to be the new health food of the 21st century

Umm, I'm sure chocolate is a vegetable, and if you eat chocolate cake with a nice grenache for frosting AND chocolate ice cream, then you have covered every IMPORTANT food group and have done your duty to eat healthy for the day.
