Now that's a big curry pup...

Hi Honey!  How's it going today?  How's work?  You must be all sorts of busy, so please eat properly and get lots of rest.  Nothing out of the ordinary going on here for me.  I'm trying to save money, so I'm not spending any for the next 2 days, and eating whatever that's in the cooler or growing in the yard.  I had some sardines left over, so I made a couple of calzones for lunch stuffed with sardines, diced tomatoes and fried onions.  I have 2 ways of closing my calzones, one I close the edges then pull it back and tie it into a knot, and the other I pinch the edges into a twisting pattern.  Here in this country we have a local delicacy where dough is stuffed with a meat and potato stuffing and shaped into mini calzones where the edges are pinched into a twisting pattern, and they usually come in the size of about half a palm of one's hand.  These are called "curry puffs" or "curry pups", and these are what my parents are used to.  So even though a calzone is a folded over and sealed pizza, my parents still call it a curry pup.  Now I've never seen anyone sell curry pups the size of half a plate, perhaps someone should try that.  It would certainly be a quick and filling meal.
Hi Natty!  How are you doing, Beautiful Girl?  I am sure missing you- I haven't seen your pretty face in a while.  I can only assume that you are very busy and living out of your suitcase.  Get your travel kicks in now while you are young.  Because I will make sure my wife and children are rooted in to one spot inshaAllah, so they can live a sheltered and safe life.
