Potatoes

 We have been growing our own potatoes this year. We planted seed potatoes in two grow bags and have harvested everything I could find from one of them. That gave us fresh, new potatoes for dinner every day for over a week.

I didn't dare take pictures while harvesting (Nikki + digging in soil to his elbows + camera = certain disaster!) but I did take a snap of the bowl we brought up one afternoon. We are also growing lettuce, but Nikki still insists that he doesn't "eat leaves" and asks impatiently whether the one carrot that actually started growing is big enough to pick yet...


Nikki actually got the first potatoes we harvested all for himself and insisted I take a picture for him. Don't they look yummy!
