There was no blood and I have no scars but there was, in fact, a cascade of potatoes rolling down my stairs.

And there were F-Bombs dropped.


I got to the top and realized I needed to put the potatoes down to get my key in the door. About that time the twistie tie at the top of the bag came loose and there was shifting of spuds and then one by one they all went cascading down the stairs.

There were two left in the bag but I threw them to the bottom of the stairwell for good measure.

The Husband came to see what all the comotion was, and he took one look at me, looked down to the potatoes, looked back at me, grabbed the bag of vegetables and sighed.

And then I regained my compsure (read: Made a lemon drop) and went back down to retrive the little red bastards.

My downstairs neighbor was heading into his door as I was bent over picking up the spuds when he asked, "Did you fall? Is there blood?"

"No." was my reply, through clenched teeth.

"Well then in your world I would say that you actually faired pretty well, right?"


He knows me well, my neighbor.

I made the delectable Lemon Drop last night for the first time: 2/3 cup juice, 1 cup vodka, splash of simple syrup and divide in 2 over ice. Mmmmmm. Delicious! And just what my DW and I needed on a hot summer's evening.
It took a few minutes for it to sink in that I had just poured each of us a 1/2 cup of vodka, and it was now mostly gone!
Hic.
I wonder if it makes a good hangover cure?
Thanks for a great blog.

You poor thing! How do you get anything done? Between the cream in the walk-in, all the laundry, and chasing little potatoes all over the place, you're always cleaning up after your mistakes. How you still have time to cook? :-D

If the spuds fall down the stairs, do they still count as organic?
