My, my me and a mile high plate of curly fries!

[RJ'S/beginning 5,357]

Saturday I took my grand daughter to a market to look for some cheese and fresh produce..On the way out I spied a stall that made curly fries. I told my hubby I would get some as a treat and share them with him and Amelia....

Well the plate was loaded about 12 in. high. i had to place a napkin over the chips just to carry them. My hubby said no way we need another plate. So he put some on another plate and I salted them...Then I salted the remaining chips on the other plate.....

I felt terrible, I knew I loved these and went ahead and got them knowing they were a trigger food for me in the past....Oh well I thought everyone needs a treat now and then...We rushed them to the car so they would stay hot and my grand daughter got the second plate.I was sure she would not be able to eat that much....I was wrong.....

My hubby took the other plate and moved it toward me. i looked like a kid in a candy store...They smelled amazing. I took 1 flat piece and popped it into my mouth and almost instantly got this pain in my chest....I deep fried potato piece made me feel sick....I pushed the plate away and said no way..not going to work out.....

As I watched my family eating the fries I said without even thinking.." Today I am glad I have my sleeve " My hubby looked at me and he said good for you girl!!!!!!

Saved by the sleeve!!!!!!!!!

Great story!

We were at a great place last night for dinner and ordered the bruschetta...It tasted so good. I wasn't able to eat a lot, but I savored every bite, including the bread. My husband had to remind me to slow down - I'm glad he did!

you painted such a vivid picture, I could SEE that big plate of fries, and it made me nauseous ... I guess I'm not going to get them either!
