This is embarrassing.
Early in the summer when I was going to be the queen of small-scale veggie gardens, I planted a few sprouting potato pieces in a plastic garbage can. Well, a couple of them had sprouted.
I planned the various ways to cook my plentiful harvest; au gratin, whipped, baked, sauteed, scalloped, I was going to do them all.
Eventually there was a lavish display of lush green leaves and I confidently waited for the moment the leaves showing signs of quitting.
Yesterday I harvested.
And this is it.
Half a dozen little beauties.
Six.
Next time I won't be so casual about the condition of those little green sprouts before I toss them into the barrel.
