ABC Wednesday - K is for Ketchup




K is for Ketchup .......




macro of french fries and ketchup



It was the July 4th, Independence Day, celebration, and we had arrived early to stake out a good spot for the fireworks that would begin at dusk.

The smells of cotton candy, steak subs, and french fries filled the air.

Our bag of snacks contained celery, carrots, and popcorn, but the boys were giving it disgusting glances as they mumbled something about taking a walk around the park.

Next thing I know, they come back with wide smiles and trays of french fries with ketchup on the side.

After giving in to a couple, I snagged a tray before they were all gone and snapped a photo.

It was the only good image of the night - the fireworks ones came out really bad. Will have to try again this year.

  1. Ooh, fries - yum. We call them chips here in the UK - and I'm not allowed any as I'm on a diet! Never mind. Raw carrots are just as nice (I can pretend!). Happy Wednesday!

  25. Hi kml.....love the ketchup!!! Thanks for the nice comment on my "K"...the castle is there on the signs as our town hall resembles a castle. The guy that developed our neighborhood loved Scotland and named all our streets and town after cities and places in Scotland...you can check out the town hall "castle" here.

  29. Hubby and I were hungry and after seeing this K shot he said I need a good hamburger and fries, lets go get something to eat...so we did. Hence my late commenting on your pot.

  30. Oh, those chips (fries) look delicious! DownUnder, we call 'ketchup', tomato sauce....nice on chips/fries but I'm not a fan of it otherwise. My kids like the fry sauce they sell in the States but they don't have it here. I think it's basically a mix of ketchup and mayo, isn't it?

    Great photo!
