“Mom the reason I don’t want to be a girl is because it hurts when you have a baby”
How do you know that honey?
“I have known that since I was 1. Also, I knew how to talk and stuff like that when I was 1 and I wanted to say words but when I tried to talk, I just cried’.
Awesome bud – you are amazing.
That is the conversation that just took place. I am happy our son is so full of personality and zest.
Speaking of zest, I decided to make some zesty salt and vinegar potatoes to celebrate starting Thyroid medication. Crossed fingers for medication success and that you love these potatoes.
Ingredients:
1/2 pound baby Yukon potatoes, washed and cut in half
3 tablespoon 5% vinegar (I used rice wine vinegar)
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive or grapeseed oil
a few dashes of fresh or dried rosemary
a few dashes of fresh or dried thyme
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar and 1 tablespoon of oil. Toss the potatoes in and allow to marinade for 10-30 minutes.
2. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Brush the baking pan with the remaining teaspoon of oil.
3. Onto the potatoes, toss on the rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper and toss well. Bake for 20 minutes and check if they are done by piercing the potatoes with a fork.
4. If the potatoes are not done, mix the potatoes and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes.

These were excellent! I used fresh herbs and had to bake them a total of 30 minutes. I’ll definitely make them again!
Shirley says

Betty says
I was wondering if you can do these the night before as I’m wanting to make them for a big group for breakfast? Do you think they would be ok?

Funny to stumble upon this. Though I caught the word thyriod…after my firstborn I got really sick. It was grave’s disease. I’ve since had it removed and had a successful 2 nd pregnancy. But thyroid disease can be horrible. It really changed my body and hormones. I didn’t even know about the thyroid before this. Controls so much. Hopefully you are doing well with yours.
Jennifer says
Give it a whirl as it won’t be bad!

So I have red potatoes and red wine vinegar. Would this work?
