Everyone remembers the grilled cheese sandwich that resembled the Virgin Mary.
I’m very pleased to bring you …
The Smiley Face Boiled Potato
It seemed like a regular evening with me making dinner while being asked 1000 questions (Can I have a cookie? Can I have a banana? Where is the baby? Can I have a cookie? When is dinner? Can I help you? What’s for dinner? Will you make me something else? Can I watch TV in here? Can I have koolaid? Is tomorrow a schoolday? Can I sit by you at dinner? Is the applesauce cold? Can I have a cookie?). A regular Sunday dinner of fried chicken, fresh rolls and mashed potatoes, me foolishly thinking of ways to get my kids to try the asparagus.
But when I dumped the potatoes from the pressure cooker into the mixing bowl, there was the cutest little smile looking up at me. Needless to say I DID NOT mash that sucker!

I don’t expect my tater to fetch the $28,000 that the grilled cheese went for. Starting bid is $5! (LOL- yes I am aiming high – - – very high!)

I think you can fetch a higher price if you say it is “Smiling Jesus potato”

Sad news… it didn’t sell.
I should re-list it and try again.
Do you think it needs to have longer hair to be called a Jesus Potato? Who in the Bible was bald?
