Adventures in tater tots

Hi Natty!  How are you?  Aw don't you feel lonely my darling, I'm always with you and I always think about you.  Don't you know that I've given the rest of my life to you?  I love you with all of my heart.  So don't you worry about a thing, everything will work out just fantastic for us inshaAllah.  Please be patient and pray.  You're probably caught up in the whirlwind of our business of marriage, and it's hard to do it alone.  Tell me about it!  I'm an emotional wreck!  Patience is truly from Allah.

Are you hungry?  Please remember that as my wife inshaAllah, you are automatically a professional endorser of food products.  This may or may not have any emotional value to you, but be aware that other people go insane over it.  This may be something you need to discuss with your agent, so you don't miss out on the bucks.  My project for this month is beef and potatoes on a small budget, namely my budget.  The food that crossed my mind today is tater tots.  You can't find tater tots anywhere here.  Tater tots is an American phenomenon.  It's basically precooked  potatoes plus flour mixed into dough, shaped into tater tots then fried.  I don't think it's wise to get creative with that concept, because the human brain may not find anything other than what is perceived as school lunch to be palatable.  But I had some leftover curry pup stuffing, which is basically precooked potatoes with onions and meat (in this case chicken) mixed with curry spices, which turned out kind of bland as curry pups, so I turned them into tater tots.  It worked out to be too exotic for tater tots, but not a failure.  Next time, I'll make it as close to school lunch as possible.
