what you can do........

Thanks for the doggy bag!....There are various possibilities to use the contents of these things. You don't want always to eat the same thing two days running, and often you can't freeze some of the things!
It's impossible to eat everything most of the time in the Diner, so - doggy becomes a small problem....!
I've made loads of different dishes from so called "left-overs", the latest was from my 6(!) grilled lamb chops, and it's easy.
Together with the "gravy" from KFC (which I NEVER use with the chicken) a little Marsala or Madeira wine,
some garlic, some water, you simply let the juices cook the 4 "left over" lamb chops, slowly and gently, until you've got the consistency of sauce (no longer gravy) you want!
Bottle and glass of 5 year old Madeira wine. T...Bottle and glass of 5 year old Madeira wine. This dessert wine is medium dry. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Take the mashed potatoes from KFC as well, mix in some grated cheese, an egg yolk, some  cream - stir over a low heat till the mixture is creamy and smooth then put the chops in an oven proof casserole, surrounded by creamy potatoes, put the chops in the serving dish covered with the sauce (like this photo but with the chops under the sauce) cover with aluminium - 10 to 15 minutes in the oven  - SERVE.........!
Hey - thanks to the Diner and KFC you've become a Cordon Bleu! ......

Even people (you know who I mean) who hate chicken and lamb are very enthusiastic, at least about the delicious odour coming from the kitchen........

Absolutely last food thing from USA

   Finally made it, it was on my list, and it was very nice indeed! It was considered "common", but didn't matter to me, it was good!
We were supposed to go all the way to Manhatten - just for a hotdog, so when I saw this one on our route to food shopping, I said - pull in, this'll do me - all the big city things like the Empire State, Statue of liberty etc, I can Google all that and get better pictures anyway, with much less risk of getting attacked! Yes, there were 2 other things on my list and I did one of thembut here is the proof of my getting on with hot dogs....! Interestingly enough, in this land of fast food, the hot dog stands (at least this one) was/were popular, we stood by the car eating our doggy and the queue never reduced!
From there, but later, we went on to the last but one on my list.......Bagels!
I'm sorry but you can keep these inedible things! 
I should have known really, here is a simple fact - 
"bagel (also spelled beigel)[1] is a bread product, traditionally shaped by hand into the form of a ring from yeasted wheat dough, roughly hand-sized, which is first boiled for a short time in water and then baked.[2] The result is a dense, chewy, doughy interior with a browned and sometimes crisp exterior"


For someone like myself, the dense, chewy, doughy interior is about the worst thing I could have - intestinally a ruin.....!
I didn't even take a picture, I just put the bit in my mouth and then tenderly spat it into the dustbin - not even the ants wanted  to know........!
So..........to finish off, maybe "the cheesecake factory", if we can find one locally - exactly the opposite to Bagels - melts in the mouth, but we'll see......

These places sell a multitude of these things:
but the nearest is quite a way - maybe we'll find one on our road to Baltimore next weekend to meet up with my beautiful niece.....!
