Bandicooting
Jonni told me about the practice of 'bandicooting', where you scratch around the potato plant
When
Jonni came in the other day and asked if I wanted to go bandicooting
I just could wait to get out to the potato patch!
Of course, as it's his vegie garden, I had to let him have first go -
and what a fine looking spud he found.
Then it was my turn..................
I didn't do quite so well!
I left it to the expert and in no time we had a lovely couple
of handfuls
of Dutch Cream potatoes.
Jonni thought we'd save
them for dinner in a couple of days time,
but with a bit of persuasion I was able to convince him to have them
for afternoon tea. And they were sooooooooo delicious.
