    Default Sweet potatoes are planted

    When I got home from our daughter's volleyball practice yesterday evening, my husband was on his hands and knees planting sweet potato slips. They are Centennial variety. We ended up with 2 rows about 15 feet long, but it doesn't look like enough to me. No doubt come harvest time I'll think we have plenty -- we don't have a good place to store them since they like warm, dry storage.

    I'll have to do some pondering about the storage -- maybe we could rig something up in our garage until it gets super cold.
