Day 24

June 20th, 2018 at 08:33 am

Payday. Today I went to Veggie Boys and bought 10 kilos of brushed potatoes for $8. Getting it home was a bit troublesome. It kept overbalancing my wheelie basket as I trundled along but I managed it. Saved $6 over buying the washed potatoes in the closest supermarket.
Potatoes have a bad reputation among the low carbers but they're actually quite nutritious. This Aussie guy

    I have heard of people surviving the Great Depression on potatoes. And, of course, it was a staple of the Irish diet, too, before the blight and famine. I love 'em!

    Maybe the potatoes aren't the culprit but all the stuff we often put on them like butter! I too like potatoes.
