  1. I think they would taste similar to red potatoes, and most likely are better-suited for roasting or boiling. And it would certainly make a unique presentation as a salad. There are regular and "yam" varieties of purple potatoes, apparently. https://www.knowyourproduce.com/purple-mashed-potatoes/ https://www.spoonforkbacon.com/mashed-purple-sweet-potatoes/
  2. Asparagus is another one that I thought about growing, and I've heard that planting onions and potatoes from your pantry will cause them to grow into a new plant. I've thought about growing different varieties of potatoes like those. I imagine they're much hardier than the Russets or reds I normally buy at the store.
  3. Beets, carrots, leeks, and radishes. I also have oregano, basil, chives, and sage in pots. I thought I might add potatoes and fennel later.
  4. Hey, Bertie. Two days ago, it was cold and gray with freezing rain. Now it's 69F/20C and the sky is clear and blue with nary a cloud, and a soft breeze is playing with the new buds on the trees. I spent the afternoon planting my garden, and took a walk to the park (while observing the proper social precautions). Now I might cook hot dogs over a bonfire later.
  5. Wow! What a coincidence! And I agree, I wanna use the name "Xavi" in a story now!
  6. This young man is Xavi Sanchez. I think he'd be a good feature for the next edition of Imagine Magazine. @Comicality I think his eyes are saying "Will you feed me?"
  7. Doing very well, all things considered. TheThe cottage looks lovely, and I can't wait to see it when it's done. Hey, Tea Bat.
  8. Hey, Marty! How are you?
  9. I made Nashville Hot Chicken for dinner. https://grandbaby-cakes.com/nashville-hot-chicken/ Now, chicken isn't a favorite of mine, but this is dee-licious! I also made biscuits with honey butter, and garlic smashed potatoes.
  10. @Comicality Will Franklyn Miller is on Netflix now?!
  11. Yeah, it's a shame, but it was four years ago. Still pretty funny. I mean, what are the odds of that happening?
  12. Not as nuts as this article! https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/trucks-carrying-bread-deli-meat-crash-on-nj-highway-piscataway/1355939/
  13. Hey, Marty. How goes work on the New-Old house?
  14. It goes well so far. I'm about to embark on a trip to the grocery store.
  15. Hey, Gary. How's Falkor?
  16. I actually agree with Belgium on this. In WWII, the Belgian people spoke French, and I believe, their military uniforms may have been too similar in appearance to those worn by the French army. The American soldiers who arrived in Europe became confused, thinking they were still in France, and the name "French Fries" stuck. The proper term, however, is "Frites".
  17. I think your neighbors might object, though.
  18. I saw an episode of Barefoot Contessa where Ina Garten prepared a Capón (gelding rooster), so they are, in fact, edible.
  19. Wow! Let's brush the dust off this thread! D'awww, Noah is so adorable!
  20. Good policy for the entitled hellspawn of Karen.
  21. We have a couple of goldfinches on the bird feeder. Lots of sparrows on the ground.
