I love tempura tempura sweet potato. :-)

Speaking of sweet spuds, I was just over at sis's place and she had 3
nice sweet potatoes sprouting in her kitchen potato bin. One of them had
sprouts nearly 10" tall! I asked her if I could have a couple of them,
(She wanted to put one in a large pot) and she said yes.

I already had one with some small sprouts myself so I'm going to go out
and put those in the ground today out in the driveway flower bed since I
have a large blank area about 6' in length.
There is a wood fence for them to climb and they should be decorative up
there as they are morning glories. :-)

I hope they do well. The blooms make for good photography subjects.
