Serve up ketchup to cure up relationship hiccups
Post Valentines Day blues? Did you forget to buy jewelry? Bring baby’s breath flowers instead of roses? OR were you the insensitive $@*&! that forgot the day altogether? Regardless of your trespasses, your significant other is mighty pissed. Odds are your ass is about to be bounced right out the door. You best be proactive to solve this little quandary before they are on the phone with that ex you hate or off to the bar to slut it up with the first sketchball that buys them a drink. Take it from a guy who has pissed off more girls than I have hairs on my head (no receding hairline here), drastic measures are called for if you want to keep them around. Since the CTB method is my ticket to everything from company for the night to free timeshare rentals in Costa Rica, food is the answer to most of my problems.

Throw in the potatoes and fry until the start to harden (approx 2 min). Remove from oil and lay out on something they can drain on (I used an oven rack set over a baking pan).

Throw the fries back in and cook until they turn golden brown (approx 2 min). Allow the fries to cool and drain once more (approx 2 min). Step 4 Things are about to get interesting.
