Me, me! I knew!
But I didn't think anyone else would care, so I didn't tell ;)

And languages and sanitation and planet Earth.

Merde, alors, comme j'avais dis à shewhomust, c'est l'Année International de la pomme de terre. Dans toute le monde!

Whitchurch has an annual potato day you know!

Just saying...

Say more! What do you do, at a potato day - hurl 'em? Mash 'em? Measure the biggest? All of the above...?

Well actually gardening types get together and buy grow your own kits in many different varieties. Last year they gave away "smiley" potatoes, which our gardening expert at work advises has little pink smiles on it.

*Shudders*.

What a great idea! (And then I find Crocus have seed potatoes in their January sale so I'm not too late to sow some this year. What would springtime be without keeping the hens out of the potato patch.)

Ha. If you're Ukrainian, *every* year is the Year of Potato.

P.S. Happy unbirthday
