    Easy Peasy Lemon Cheesy!

    30 June, 2007 by Kip Leave a Comment

    It was one of those days that flew by and when I looked at the clock it was already dinner time. As a result I wanted to make something simple to eat, something along the lines of a protein and two-veg meal. We had some frozen minted peas (the only acceptable frozen vegetable in my opinion) and since I'm currently having a vegetarian love affair with the little greenies, they immediately jumped to the top of the dinner ingredient list. But I fancied something a little different than plain boiled peas, something with a little more flavour.

    When I served these, my husband of course asked what was up with the peas. "Lemon and cheese," I responded. He immediately broke out into giggles and questioned me.
    "You're kidding," he said. "You did not just tell me you made cheesy peas!"

    "And lemon," I replied. "Don't forget the lemon. Why?"

    He laughed again and explained to me that a character on The Fast Show often referenced cheesy peas, citing them frequently in various situations ("You like Cheese!? You like Peas!? Then you'll love Cheesy-Peas!!")

    I punched him in the face and told him to eat his vegetables.

    Well, I told him to eat his vegetables anyway.

    A thoughtful read for long time vegans and nonvegans alike, this is one of the best styles of arguing for and discussion veganism I have yet to find. Highly recommended reading.
