Grumpy Potato's and Found Art
"Mrs. Neighbour" I says. "why do you have a grumpy potato on the shelf above the stove"? "eeeh, what are you talking about"? says mrs.neighbour. I asked her, "you mean you didn't do that on purpose"?. "no, what"? says mrs.neighbour, "I just put the tattie there for my son so he would remember it for lunch"?
She couldn't stop laughing as I told her over a cup of tea (not with sherry or crumpets) that it looked like one sad grumpy tattie waiting to put in the pot or oven.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCKING AT THE DOOR
Meanwhile later that evening mrs.neighbour's daughter was full of excitement !
She had found a piece of my art in town near the post office and had to come and show me.
KNOCK KNOCK AGAIN
One hour later there was a rapid knocking at the door and guess what I FOUND?
Hard to see, but it is a little pencil drawing of a tree on canvas and is called "beautiful day". When her mum asked her if she should colour it in the daughter said, "oh no, corrine LIKES black and white."
I got to tell you this just MADE MY DAY!

Ah...potato art. I look forward to seeing what you will do. Sad potatoes and happy potatoes. Pensive spuds,
tortured soul spuds...it will be big I tell you! BIG!
