They will be the "bed" for some pan roasted halibut! <br /><br />Suldog - They are similar in texture to potatoes but have a nutty, slightly sweet taste all their own.

It's going to be a great (and rapid) five years, and the quilts will be ready for the beds.<br /><br />I've never made these, but they look really good.

Well, maybe...<br /><br />Crystal - it seems that farms and beautiful hand made quilts go together, no?<br /><br />Buffalo - go, buy, make, try. Love!! <br /><br />Whitney - my house too is filled with these colors. I find them all so comforting! <br /><br />Kathy - exactly! They do look like the roots of a sunflower and they are closely related. You can find them in the produce aisle. You must really love that boy a lot - I just finished with my first (3 hour) lesson and it is a lot of work!The Good Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01249986191289837440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071135032060260965.post-63340228652276206582010-02-08T11:38:42.558-05:002010-02-08T11:38:42.558-05:00I have never had this dish.

I am making a freeform quilt for my little grandson. It has skateboards on it and the lining side is green. His favorite color.

I'll have to try them (they look appetizingly like fried potatoes) when I feel like cooking again.<br /><br />I'm sure you'll have a blast making a quilt. I love the colors. They are the same colors I have all over my house. Something about the earthy tones and the way they complement one another is so warm and welcoming.Whitney Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07766231420593480962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071135032060260965.post-77291690411062102372010-02-08T10:20:29.054-05:002010-02-08T10:20:29.054-05:00I've never had those in my life!I've never had those in my life!buffalodickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00663035745368682736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071135032060260965.post-43232522943440873362010-02-08T09:05:12.596-05:002010-02-08T09:05:12.596-05:00I absolutely love homemade quilts and have bedspre...I absolutely love homemade quilts and have bedspreads.
