It was 2 years back when my parents last visited us. During that visit, little miss Haana made nana (maternal grandpa) cook french fries for her almost every other day. I should add, Nana is more like a twice-in-a-year kind of a cook, if that! When they come to visit, I make sure no one is left behind in helping out in the kitchen! ;) Their visit 2 years back is marked in memory with so much good food! Goat curry, goat biryani, chicken curry, aaloo paratha (potato stuffed tortillas cooked with oil) and of course several times a week, home cooked french fries! Even since they left, french fries has become a distant memory. Little miss Haana reminds Nana she'll be needing more french fries when they see each other next.
Last week, the little girl asked me in earnest to make french fries. She peeled the potatoes, and then used card stock to make a french fries holder, much like mcDonalds' open box to hold the fries and put the sign M on it (I think that's M for Mumma, not McDonalds). I cooked the french fries and filled 'em up in her fries box.
In the end, she made me a beads bracelet with the letters "Best Ranked Mom"! The fries mightbe over but I get bragging rights forever!
