Bud and the Giant Sweet Potato

You've heard of James and the Giant Peach; now you've heard of Bud and the Giant Sweet Potato.

This bad boy weighed in at 6 pounds and as you can see by the measuring tape, was a foot long.  

They dug up over a dozen this size and even bigger today.  So they must be doing something right in the garden.  

And before you naysayers discredit and say that sweet potatoes that big will lose their flavor, today for lunch the Old Man and my Sweet Mother microwaved a big sweet potato and they said it was as flavorful as a smaller one.  

At least this is one sweet potato that the ground hog didn't get.
