This time, not only did I buy a 10 lb bag, but then I forgot that I bought that bag and bought a second 10 pound bag a few days later. So, we had a sweet potato hash for breakfast, simply mashed sweet potatoes with our dinner a couple of nights and I still had a good 10-15 pounds of potatoes in the basket. I’ve...
