Day 245, Oh Bobby

I'm sorry you gotta head like a potato.

But, if you have a potato head then be happy, for the potato is a most wonderful and versatile of the starchy foods, if not of vegetables.  Unless you count it as a vegetable, then it is that thing that was just in the previous sentence.

And there are so many varieties to choose from.

Oh yes.

Let's hear it for the potato.

What a great gift the Americas have given us.

Not only is the potato a wonderful edible delight but there are many songs that refer to the apple from the earth:

• Vi Azoi Trinkt Der Kayser Tey? (How does the Tsar drink tea?)

• Don't slay that potato

• One potato, two potatoes

• San Ber'dino

Here's the one referred to in the blog title.

Maybe that's a spud 'u like?

Oh, and garlic is pretty good too.
