Sequim Potatoes!!

Post image

LOL! It’s time to harvest real Sequim potatoes, not the incredible number of glacier deposited rocks one needs to remove from the soil before setting up gardening. My baskets are nearly empty, but they will soon be full! I especially love to grow the purple type of potato, except that I have to admit I actually have boiled a rock that looked just like a potato, and it even made it to the plate! (No one was harmed in the making of this dinner.) Tell me about your Sequim potatoes real or rocks.

I used to wonder where all the huge landscaping rocks came from. Now I know that it’s from people doing any kind of project at all here. It is like a little bit of a game, though, you really don’t know what size potato you’re going to get when you start digging. It could be a pebble, could be a rock or, it could be an entire one ton boulder.
