I love ‘if a potato could turn into a person’! For some reason I see a jolly, chubby short person and yes, I like them!!

Maybe there's a veggie in your kitchen waiting for a poem?

I love this poem! Potatoes have multiple functions. They serve as hand/body warmers. When baked and wrapped in foil put them in your coat pockets when you’re outside doing winter things. Then have them to fill your belly.

Remember Mr. Potato Head. Such fun to create with a potato!

I love this poem - It is like a sweet potato and it makes me want to write about other food.
