Stuff to do with potatoes, besides eating them:

• Potato stamping. You know how! Using a small cookie cutter, and cutting around the outside works very well. Make wrapping paper or cards.
• If you're making soup and have oversalted it, floating a few chunks of potato on top for 10 minutes will help reduce the saltiness.
• Remember egg races, carrying an egg on a spoon for a relay race? Try using a potato. Or run the race rolling the potato on the ground with your nose.
• If you cut a face into a potato, and let it dry, you can get one of those wizened old faces like with an apple. Just make sure it dries, rather than molds!
• Timmy says to cut a face in it, like a jack o'lantern, only smaller. Or stick other kinds of food on it to make a face, like the tops of carrots for hair.

Ronniger's Seed Potatoes has recently joined forces with another company and changed their name to Irish Eyes with a Hint of Garlic. They still have the biggest and best selection of different potato varieties.

They are also now on the web, yay! Find them at Irish Eyes

You may be wondering about the background of this page. It's the Potato God. Yes, really. Fondly known as the "SpudGod". He's from Peru, where potatoes originated. He's holding potato plants in each hand, with the flowers on top, and the tubers below. Kind of a cool guy, I really like him. So although I don't generally put backgrounds on my web pages, I decided he needs to be here to watch over my potato stuff.
