Speaking of potatoes. . . .

If you’ve read my blog even fairly frequently, you probably know that I have a weakness for differently colored vegetables.

Purple potatoes, red/white/purple carrots, purple sweet potatoes, brown tomatoes–the list is long.  And I’ve tried a lot of different things.  I frequently find that the more unique vegetables don’t produce as well, but that doesn’t seem to stop me.

Well, I was perusing an often-used online site and thinking about what to order for my vegetable garden this spring, and I came across this doozy.

Potato ‘Masquerade’

I’m still laughing.  And yet, I put them in my online cart.  I don’t think I can resist.  They aren’t necessarily appealing to look at, as far as food goes, and they are sort of ridiculous.  But I’m pretty sure I’m going to be growing them in my vegetable garden this summer.

If I can stop laughing long enough to order them. ;)

    They’re cute – but what are they masquerading as?
    And how many do you think they had to sort through to find enough for the picture :)

    Are you kidding? How can you resist?
    I have already pre-ordered mine and have prepped the bed. (Spring can’t come too soon.)
