For the longest time, I had a lame, boring banner. Graphic design just ain't my thing.... Then along came the incredibly talented Janice Brown of Cow Hampshire. Janice has designed an entire collection of banners for me out of the goodness of her heart.

I am incredibly grateful -- and you should be too: Before she came along, this blog was hard on the eyes!

Thank you Janice!!!

These are not Janice's fault.

As for solving various and sundry things with potatoes.... The official description/subtitle of the blog is: "It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes."
