Tiny croquettes, maybe an inch long.
Except aren't the potatoes larger shreds in tater tots? And nothing inside.
Unless I'm thinking of the wrong kind of croquette.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

“Not dead yet!”
Tater tots and croquettes are completely different to me. This is what I think of as croquettes:
And OMG, are they of the NOM and YUM. With perfectly fried eggs and a big slab of Cuban bread, it is my OTB.

Yeah, me too.
ita, have you had fast-food style hashbrown patties? Tots are like that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ugh. Don't like those. At least the times I've had them, the texture of the shreds of potato were too preserved. Whereas the croquettes were like mashed potatoes.
I should eat. I haven't done that yet today.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Tots are basically shreds compressed into a small nugget. I can see where it would be a weird texture thing.
And now I want tater tots. Preferably as nachotots.

my house is hot like a sauna. you know what is not helping? running around like a crazy woman getting thing ready fir vacation. I think I have done all I can do for the moment. Am packed aside from essentials we also need in the morning, have arranged pet care (still need to write out instructions), have straightened up all the bins I brought in yesterday (not easy to "hide" 10, 21 gal bins), and have laundry drying so it will be done when we return.
Still need to:
print boarding passes
call car service
put a new movie on mac's ipod
last minute little box clean
instructions to pet sitters
fold up the aerobed in the morning

Phew msbelle. After all that, you'll need a vacation!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Tater tots are always too hot to eat. And they violate my hard shell/gooey inside rule. But croquettes rule, I make 'em all the time.

I'm pretty sure that defies the rules of thermodynamics.

This vacation will be BUSY, but hopefully enjoyable. I just hope we can get to bed by 8:30 - 9 tonight.
boarding passes are printing and I'm ordering the car, maybe I'll write out the instructions now too and head out to this party.
