With everything else in the garden winding down and drying up, I was surprised to receive the biggest sweet potato I've ever seen from my friend Joe's garden. It appeared that all the potatoes he planted in the same hill had joined forces to produce one massive heart shaped sweet potato. There just wasn't any choice but to bake it ,slice it and bake a little longer in a combination of butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and topped with marshmallows for all the 'big' kids in the family.
I'm thankful that Joe is so generous with his produce and for the fact that he gardens just down the road in my in-laws old garden spot that has produced a garden of memories for my family down on the dairy farm.
