What is your favorite meal or comfort food? My meal planning changes with the seasons. Lots of soups in the fall and winter. Now with spring and summer comes more fresh vegetables and salads. Can’t wait for the fresh herbs to be more plentiful. Lots of chives and fresh flowers in the kitchen please.
On the subject of potatoes, I noticed that the sweet potatoes that have been patiently waiting to be cooked and eaten have decided instead to sprout. Once the weather becomes a little less intense (close to 90's for the next few days), the sweet potatoes will go into the ground or containers to complement some petunias I hope to get at Memorial Day sales.
I'll be planting my father's containers as well, so some of the potatoes will go into the 3 tiered one to create vines to fill in the bare spots.
I was surprised that one year the sweet potatoes grew so well as vines that I actually had some to harvest for eating.
To be honest with you what I have decided is. Store bought is way easier. But I had to give it a try. But to me, not worth the time. Kinda like growing beans, beans are cheap enough to just buy, and more trouble to grow and harvest. If I had more time I would rather do it that way than buy, But limited time makes us choose.
So, thats my potato flake story. :)
Earl will be getting bought flakes. :)
