I’m excited for this topic I’m the only thing I don’t care for is German potato salad otherwise I pretty much like just about anything you can do with potatoes so bring on the potatoes!!!

I no longer enjoy potatoes. I sure did though most of my life.

Plain french fries were my favorite. I especially liked steak cut and crinkle cut.

Tater tots were indeed tasty too.

A plain baked potato and frosty from Wendy's often made a quick lunch.

Dad still enjoys flavored potato chips and every so often waffle fries, too.

Going back to the cute topic…

Grateful I was able to stop and watch them cross the road in front of my car on the way to work today. Momma ducks with their baby ducklings melt my heart. And these baby ducklings look like they just hatched an hour ago - they are so tiny

Potatoes or pretty much carbs in general are a weakness of mine!

1. Triple cooked chips (fries, kinda) - the best type of fried chips you can get, as they're perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. Go so well with steak, burgers, pies etc.

2. Crisps (or chips for my American friends) - don't eat these as often as I want to as once i open a bag i can't stop, but there's so many tasty flavours that are incredibly moreish. And dips to go with them too...

3. Baked/jacket potatoes - while they're nowhere near as fun and exciting as the above two, I'm grateful for these as they're a nice healthy lunch when I'm at working, especially when paired with baked beans!

What are potato donuts ?????

I’ve made potato fudge so I know what that is but I’ve never heard of potato donuts I’m very intrigued

Beach Towels - although I am a small petite person I enjoy using a beach towel when I get out of the shower I prefer them over a bath towel you can get an extra big bath towel I understand that but I like a beach towel they’re a bit thicker and a bit bigger nothing I need it I don’t know why I just like them and yes I take one with me when I go on vacation so I can use it on vacation and no I don’t take it with me to the pool it is for my shower I have a different beach towel that repels sand that I take with me when I go to the pool or to my favorite spot the beach

Tote Bag - I have several but one of them is my favorite bought it on a cruise it’s made out of material from sails and then I have a favorite one I like to travel with and then I have a favor on want to take when I go shopping you can ever have enough tote bags

Disney Starbucks coffee cup - I like to get one every time I go to Disney so I can drink my morning iced coffee just a little Disney reminded every day !!

1. Walks in the fresh air - something I try and do every day weather permitted, that isn't only good from a diet and exercise pov but just getting out and enjoying the outdoors really helps my mental wellbeing too.

2. Relaxation/Me Time - there's nothing better than having time to yourself to do the little things you enjoy, from simply putting your feet up to reading a book or playing a game.

3. Hair straighteners - an every day item for most but for me they're a lifesaver and help me tame my unruly wavy hair into something a lot more presentable. Without them I'd look like a hot mess

@PollyannaMom is right, they are a Maine thing. They use mashed potatoes in the batter- or at least, my nana used to- and it gives the donut a different texture.

Simple things...

Homemade chicken soup. I have a stock going right now, for supper tonight.

Going for long drives in out-of-the-way places. Driving brings peace to my soul.

Sitting outside around a fire. We saw Jurassic World last night and on the way home saw a restaurant with outside seating. We stopped for a cocktail and sat outside around the fire pit. So relaxing, so lovely.
