take a potato to work
i was given a potato in a bag at paddington station this morning. it's national potato week apparently.
so now i have a potato. at work. i think i'm meant to eat it with tuna sauce (sachet included).
if day one of national potato week is 'eat potato', then i look forward to the rest of the week to see what other fantastic things we can do with potatos. potato prints (they give out a potato and some paints), potato clocks (vegetables at work), spud guns (check out this fantastic page) ?
it's sponsored by the british potato council. do you subscribe to potato weekly ?
it was handed to me by a man dressed as a potato. as jobs go, dressing up as a potato is pretty good.
update: see eggs vs potatos on the BBC website
I had a potato clock when I was a kid. It kept the time for a day, and then the mold set in. Apparently mold doesn't generate the same kind of raw power that a pair of potatoes can.
you should have harnessed the mold and used it to cure the sick. a miracle clock and a miracle clock. all from a humble potato.
more potato stories please ...
