One potato, two potato, smashed potato ….
…four. For what ? For my boys. I made these smashed potatoes a few times. I would make them, shoot them, and someone would eat them. I’d have to start all over because I needed to re-shoot them. Too many, too little, to black, to blue, but the main problem was …. what are they ? and what is it I am seeing? You know I liked the look, but I needed to wear your goggles to get a glimpse from the dark side. So I did.
This recipe came from the blog site, ‘Drizzle and Dip’. I followed most of the directions, and some of the ingredients. Lets look, shall we:

This time UP&C so you could really get the idea…. I opened my aperture to shorten the depth of field, and to accentuate the smash of interest, but not good enough, so I tried … again.
(how about the flower, pathetic?)

One more last time, one more last photo …. or just shoot me, I’ve had it !
