Susie, I posted this in the Jessie's Girl thread, but I thought you would appreciate my recent experience with Sweet Potatos
Quote:
I went to eat at a place called "Kokomo's Island Cafe" at the big a** mall (Mall of America) I thought I'd check it out since it was a 'tropical' place. It was a really neat place, but didn't remind me of Mexico....it was more of a Jamica/Key West thing....really colorful with lots of flowers. It was neat, but not to remind me of Mexico.
Blonde Moment:
I was looking over the menu and saw they had Marinated Lime Chicken, it sounded really good. It came with green beans and Bahama Mama Yarns I'm thinking to myself, what are Yarns? I was guessing they were those potato and onion string type things they serve at some places. So I decided to ask the waiter. He comes back and I ask him "What are Bahama Mama Yarns?" He says "Oh, those are sweet potatos...you know YAMS"
Oh....  I was so flippin' embarassed, guess it's not so much a blonde thing as I can't read thing.
Anyway, I ordered that and it was wonderful, including the yarns.  Had enough food for 3 people though. I brought home the rest and had it for dinner last night. WONDERFUL!
