Eyes opened
in all directions.

Unafraid 
of the cold earth.

The difference
between life and death

for somebody."

Hey sexaaay ;)

Me:
If you were a potato, you would be a good potato"

Potato Compliments

Hello! Don't you just love the feeling of being complimented? We sure do! And you know what? Potatoes love them even more! So while we were in economics class our teacher started giving people compliments and we wondered why she didn't compliment them on a deeper, potatoey-er level. Then we realized not everyone is half potato like us. Since you probably don't know what's appropriate to say to a potato we'll help you out so that if you find that special someone they'll really take note of how smooth you are with your words ;)

So without further delay, here are... *drumroll please* the list of the best potato compliments!!!!!!!
-I like your skin
-I like how you look in brown, it is beautifully natural
-Your shape is unlike any other


-The way you sit on that couch is very graceful

-I like how fresh you look after being dug out of the ground
-That ketchup/gravy looks so good on you


-You look beautiful inside and out


These next two are the product of our hunger and may not work as effectively. Please use with caution.
-You light up my tummy with your golden-ness (after a hot oil bath)

-My heart skips a beat everytime I see you (because it means I finally get to eat)

And that is how you compliment a potato (and half potatoes like ourselves of course)! Good luck and tell us how it worked out!

march break

Happy March Break/Spring Break/whatever you call it.


Hope everyone is having a wonderful break! No school however there is work. Sorry for those who work, maybe this is make your day a little better.


First things first as this is a week of everyones life where there's either lots of relaxation (especially if you are a student) or some stress (especially if you are a parent [your kids are at home all week]). This week is to give students a break from school but for some reason some teachers assign homework. If you had homework we feel sorry for you. We can try to help you if you tweet us. *wink wink nudge nudge* We aren't sure if we can answer all your questions but we can give it a try. We don't know where March Break came from but potatoes celebrate this week by actually marching around and having a big festival. They celebreate two important days, which will be explained in the following paragraphs.







The first fesitval is daylight savings. On this day the clock goes forward one hour. Younger potatoes see this as a form of time travelling and therefore there is a whole festival for the younger potatoes that is time travel themed. As for the older potatoes it is a time that they get wiser. They skip a whole hour therefore regaining all the knowledge they forgot before. They see past memories that were forgotten and remember facts that they learned a while back and couldn't remember them. They celebrate by watching a screen in private that shows them their memories and then get hooked up to a device that refills their mind with the facts they had forgotten.


The second festival is PI DAY. It just happens that we are blobbing on Pi day, so HAPPY PI DAY! If you can't figure out how is today pi day well its the 3rd month and 14th day, therefore 3.14 which is pi in mathematics. If anyone has a tumblr they might have
seen many math puns. (We shall include some for your entertainment. Dont judge there are some funny ones.) Share your favourites with us, we love some good puns.






We were going to attach a few photos but couldn't decide which we wanted so here's a few links to math puns:

As this week comes to an end don't forget that it's almost St.Patricks Day! It is also another celebration that potatoes have. They go around painting the farm green and having a green paint fight. Everything you can imagine is done on this day in celebration of their Irish Potato family members. Remember to wear green or else you will be pinched. GOOD LUCK & STAY SAFE!!

Chief Executive Potatoes


So you've heard of CEOs, as in THE BOSS, right? Well, the great world of potatoes have them too, only they're called CEPs, short for Chief Executive Potato. Why would there be such thing as a CEP? Well because there are potato businesses and so someone has to be head of that. Some businesses include retail, service, and finance. Those in retail are responsible for the clothes that potatoes sometimes wear (refer to blob called "HOOOOT POTATOOO"). There is a great deal of potatoes in service because this can range from dealing with restaurants to being the decorating committee for special events. There are fewer potatoes in finance because it's not that big of an industry. Most potatoes that work there are the ones that control trades like ones involving farmland. Of course, there are many ways to run a business. It could be co-operatively, where there are many potatoes who all work together to fulfil their needs. It could be a franchise like how many restaurants are. We would love to continue to tell you about these potato businesses but we have to go to a business meeting. Don't worry we'll tell you all about it some other time.
