Last week I posted a pic of my dinner plate with peppered tri-tip and some roasted veggies that included fingerling potatoes. I asked for some feedback on it because I’m curious to know what people think is a “healthy” meal, outside of kale. (Side note: can we all agree to stop making kale a thing? It’s gross.) I thought peeps would rail against the large amount of hormone-laced meat I was…
Last year whilst cooking for a dinner party we found this guy:
(sorry about the bad quality but look at his little ear)
We did all we could to try and save him by putting him the freezer. When the time came to leave our house and do the dreaded clear out we couldn't throw him out. So we left him in the freezer as a welcoming present for the next tenants. I hope he still lives there.
I can't help but think he would cheer other potatoes up like this one:

Organ Shaped Potatoes
Last night I found this heart shaped one and showed my parents.
My father responded, "yes, but have you seen my potato that looks like a kidney?"
"No", I replied. Thinking, that's not that exciting, surely a lot of potatoes have a slight kidney shape to them.
He showed me..
(the fact that it is shrivelled means he has been keeping it for a while, maybe I should tell him to put it in the freezer)
"I'm going to give it to Charles," he said.
Charles is our friend who has just had a kidney removed.
I should note that this isn't hugely distasteful as Charles is now a lot better and amazing (and will hopefully find this gift funny).
