just a reminder that Thursday, March 23, is National Chip & Dip Day

also happens to be national puppy day, but isn't everyday puppy day? I mean is there a day we don't love and adore puppies?

I mean, the lack of a puppy thread would suggest otherwise.

"In 1928, the secretary of state in Idaho had an epiphany. He realized that the license plate was the perfect place to advertise a home-grown product, and that product was… a potato. The execution wasn’t perfect. But it was innovative. Below the tremendous tater, there was even a modest, pragmatic slogan: Idaho Potatoes."

"At the age of 29, Brown walked away from football’s fortunes and – along with his wife, Tay, and their growing family – entered a new set of trenches. Or, as he put it, “I was being called to a different field.”

That field turned out to be a humble 1,000 acres in North Carolina that Brown named First Fruits Farm. It is a plot of land he has been working for nearly a decade as a sweet potato farmer."
