The humble potato has been staple food for many cultures and the basis of some very strong alcoholic spirits as well. But there is more to the potato than meets the eye. Here are a couple of ways we can use the 'Mighty' potato:
The fun stuff first! Kids listen up (big kids too). You can make funky stamps using potatoes instead of buying expensive stamps from shops that can sometimes set you back about $20 or so a piece. Simply get a big kid to cut a potato in half and carve one half with any design you want. Some ideas would be a heart or a star for the artistically challenged (like me) or a more intricate design for those who are more artistically gifted. Then simply dip in paint and stamp away! ;-)
The other way a potato can be used is to remove food stains from hands. For instance, if you have been peeling coloured foods such as carrots or pumpkin, the stains come right off if you rub your hands with a piece of cut,raw potato.
Have fun with this weeks' tips!
