Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I relisted 8 things that did not sell int he last ebay bunch and it looks like at least 4 of them will sell now. Whoot!
My big boss is out today and I really need to plow through some low-urgency work so it does not get lost in the shuffle, but I am taking a few minutes this morning to just wallow in the non-harriedness.
ita, does this help?
ita, every once in a while I see white sweet potatoes at the grocery store. I don't know if they're exactly the same as the ones you're thinking of, though. I used them a while ago in a recipe for a stew that called for plantains, but I couldn't find plantains, and they seemed like they'd give a somewhat similar flavor and wouldn't affect the color of the stew like the orange sweet potatoes would.
That would be amazingly good, Lee! We'll see what we can do.
Oh, this is awesome. Hah.

am now interested in doing this myself. My mom had it done for cataracts and was amazed afterward that she didn't even need glasses. My vision might be too bad, though. What's the actual name of the surgery so I can google it?
I doubt your vision is too bad--it's for people whose vision is too bad for LASIK! My glasses were a -13.5, and I know they've done stronger. It's called ICL--I think the company that makes them is Visian? There's also a similar but different procedure from a company called...Verisye? Or something? Google implantable contact lenses, it'll all come up.

The mouseover made me laugh my ass off, though.
The mouseover was really funny!
ita, does this help?
Thanks, but no, not without saying where they got the potatoes from. Recipes I've got. Supplies is what I'm lacking.

That doesn't sound like Jamaican sweet potatoes. They're not similar to plaintains much at all--well, certainly not more than orange sweet potatoes are.
