Spudilicious joy

I was expecting to include a lot of complaining about backache in this post, but apparently the muscles in my back don’t give a damn that I spent hours harvesting my potatoes yesterday. Lots of digging, digging, digging and I discovered that out there in my vegetable patch just over 12kg of potatoes were hiding in the soil. Magic.
