Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Cards and Japanese sweet potato

Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date's 'Cards' theme! Here is my ACEO (2 12/" x 3 1/2").



For the Dinner Date, I made Japanese purple sweet potatoes.  They are low glycemic and delicious.  Wash them, dry them, wrap each one in foil tightly.  Bake 350F 60 minutes.

Don't this variety of sweet potatoes over here. Are they floury and sweet?

Awesome cards. Oh, the sweet potato makes me think of some of my favorite scenes from watching K-drama when they roast them the old way and have them just in time to discuss a story of the past.

Love the card drawings. And I'm curious how Japanese sweet potatoes differ from regular ones.

They are different Erika, a sweet taste, maybe a different texture than the orange sweet potatoes, you must taste one

I want the hand you painted:) You find interesting food and recipes. I wasn't familiar with these sweet potatoes.

I see you dealt yourself a winning hand ... so do you have a tell at the poker table? I love Sweet Potatoes of every kind and baking them, as you said, is easy. Thanks for reminding me that there is more than one kind to choose from.

Love me all kinds of spuds. Purple and blue ones are fun too. The Japan ones are just a little toooooooo sweat for me to eat plain. Though baking with them, I bet I'd love. Since I love baking with yams.

We love Japanese Sweet Potatoes. Baked and they also make wonderful hashbrowns. You can also cook them slow in a crockpot. Your cards look very real.
