Welcome, zuisa!
My simple approach to sweet potatoes is to cut them into chunks, pour some orange juice over them and cook covered until they're soft (oven or stovetop).

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
hey, zuisa!
Come on in, the water's fine, and we're pretty nice.
ETA: and is the map right? Are you all the way over in north-of-Mongolia-land? Are you GENGHIS KHAN? (Because that would be really cool. Especially considering he's dead and all.)
ION, the painkillers have OMG helped with the side of my face and neck, and sleeping with the TMJ contraption is, indeed, possible. For a couple of hours at least, but I woke up with a bad earworm.

Um. I've just been awakened by a fire truck stopping outside my window. Firemen came into my building, but I haven't seen or heard anything beyond the loud engine and really bright lights.

And they're gone. No idea what that was about. I wish I'd been asleep for more than a hour, but I'm glad I didn't have to try to wrangle the cats for an evacuation.

That's much worse than an earworm, aurelia.
Hope someone just burned the breakfast popcorn.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
My grandmother used to call the fire department sometimes when she needed help moving my quadraplegic grandfather (she had this manual sling lift thing, and sometimes he slipped), and they always came like it was a fire. She had to run and stop them from breaking the door down at least once.
YES I AM TAKING MY MOM TO HER FIRST ROCK CONCERT.
Awesome.
I like sweet potatoes without anything else sweet, either cut up and roasted or just baked, with salt.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)
Thank you for the welcome! And the map IS right! But I'm a bit east of Mongolia; it's actually northern China - city called Harbin.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Welcome, zuisa!
Everyone said he was surprisingly short.
ita says that's most celebs she's seen.
We're planting some tomato plants we got in planters. DH is making his own topsy turvies--he bought cheap plastic buckets and painted them bright pink & purple. So cute!
I need to write and do some work on a thing this weekend. So no slacking or Bejeweled Blitz, if I can help it.
