How to keep your husband healthy

Spurred on by Magdalene, I will now give you my recipe for chip pie together with my general philosophy on how to have a healthy husband.

CHIP PIE
First of all you go to Netto and buy a packet of pastry which you proceed to roll out.



Then it's a quick nip out to the Strawberry Pig to buy some chips.



Come back home and place the chips within the pastry. Turn it into a pasty shape and crimp up prettily. Cook.



While this is cooking, put some cabbage on to boil. Make sure this is boiled for at least one hour. It needs to be very soft and tender.



Look in the cupboard for a tin of spam. Open and cut up artistically.



Arrange pie, cabbage and spam on plate. Cover with sauce.



Serve sitting in front of the television, preferably while Eastenders is on. Supply at least ten cans of lager. No Glass. Straight from the tin.



Make sure there is plenty of nice sliced white bread to mop up the sauce and any fat that oozed out of the chips and pastry.




For pudding serve a doughnut.



And to round the evening off nicely, a few fags.



I'm a great believer in healthy living, so as soon as the meal is eaten, the lager drunk and the fags smoked, a good hard game of Squash is advised. Follow my regime and you too can have a healthy husband.

I've been feeding my husband chip pies for 18 years. But every morning he wakes up, still alive, God love him.

you and your healthy hubby have a good weekend! my man is still playing around in new zealand so he will have to eat meat pies by himself.

Sara said...

Hahahah! Brilliant! My favourite post so far. Well done that Llama.

Hahaha! I don't think I've ever eaten Spam in my life. At least, not to my knowledge. LOL!

tut-tut said...

Just thinking about this combo is, well . . . I think the Spam (computer mouse??) says it all.

Rob Windstrel Watson said...

Mmmm, the thought of being squashed by a loving Llama ...

Oooh, I've proper gone all weak ...

Quick, throw me a chip pie before I pass out in ecstasy :-)

Lorenzo! After you advised me against eating Spam, I went to the market for food. I happened to notice re-issued nostalgic Spam!!! Except it was not in a can. It was one flat piece single serve in a vaccuum-packed bag (I've seen tuna and salmon packaged like this as well.) The ingredients included pork and mechanically- seperated chicken. As appetizing as that sounds, I did not purchase it. LOL!

nancy... your husband can't possibly be playing around in New Zealand. We are all very serious here, all the time. No fun and all work!
Lorenzo. Hehe. It might have taken you a while to post again.... but this is so absolutely gross it quite takes the cake!!!

Ju's little sister said...

NaNcY, in New Zealand - ALL pies are meat pies! (so we just call them pies.)

I like your styles Lorenzy and have missed reading your posts. So sorry to have missed Mrs Doyle too, she was a trooper!

Plumpy says hello to you all but he's fast asleep on my lap so I won't wake him. xx

Yes, good idea. We could put Lorenzo's chip pies on the menu when I ned a day off.

You can get HP CURRY flavour in England now???? CURRY???? Yummy.
I'll be over to get some tomorrow.
Meet me at the airport.
Any airport will do as long as it's not Heathrow T5.
I agree with Kiwi, this post takes the cake.
(thinks) I wonder what cake tastes like with HP CURRY sauce......?

Halfmom, AKA, Susan said...

1) you totally crack me up with laughter
2) do you think it would be proper to find myself a husband first before I spoiled him in this extravagent way?

Rob Windstrel Watson said...

Nay, Halfmum, just borrow someone else's!

We all perk up well with an appropriate dollop of TLC :-)

Maalie said...

>We all perk up well with an appropriate dollop of TLC :-)

Can you send some my way?

Rob Windstrel Watson said...

I said it first :-)

Merisi said...

On average, how many years do your husbands last? ;-)
P.S.:
I would suggest a stronger dose of alcohol, Absynth comes to mind.

NICE Blog :)

lebanesa said...

Yay - nice one. And for the even busier, but thoughtful wife there is the shortcut of a plateful of chip butties. Guaranteed to bring a smile to the face of any spouse.

So, isn't that how we're supposed to eat?

Ted M. Gossard said...

Wow. What's the secret over there? I hear the French keep healthy with their consistent intake of wine, in spite of all the goodies they eat. I try to drink my share. I could do better on the lager, though. Makes me thirsty just to type this!

Salads for the rest of the month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
