The very clay-y soil in the yard meant that I also pulled up a lot of potato shaped dirt clods.
I harvested about 20 pounds.

Potatoes!
Digging potatoes is a delightful experience for tactile me. I had great fun plunging my hands into the dirt and feeling around until I grabbed a potato. I would pull it triumphantly from the ground and examine it. It reminded me of the famous scene in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, except I'm not holding up a beating heart.

This Idaho girl goes wild for such lovely tubers! They look amazing and I bet they tasted even better. We have a few potatoes left from our CSA. I used them to make potato and cheese enchiladas - YUM! -S
