Potatoes and fingers

Mr. Potato could not help but stop by.

Stuffed baby bells/Monster fingers

Today, I made baby bells stuffed with lime, mint and cilantro potatoes adapted from Indian Home Cooking by Suvir. I will tell you that as soon as I smelled the mint and potatoes, I was suddenly 17 and I was transported to a mint field in Nampa, Idaho, not far from where I grew up. I could feel the warm July breeze and the sound of crikets in the grass. I could imagine that I was sun burnt, from a day of playing in the water and I am in flip flops with dirty toes and I love it. 
Back her in my tiny kitchen in west haven, it is warm from the preheating oven and the cat is asleep on the couch. I chose the baby bells instead of the big ones because of Halloween. Don't you think they look like a giants finger tips?
What can I say I find beauty in the little things.
Big hug to all who read this blog. Now you can go chop off some giant's fingers or just stuff some baby bells.
