I had epic plans to come home from work last night and edit photos for the rest of my posts for this week. Unfortunately that didn’t happen. You see, I rediscovered this thing called knitting. Did you know you can make articles of clothing out of a ball of yarn? It’s amazing! Anyway, since yesterday I knit for hours instead of editing photos, here is a never before seen post complete with recipe for your viewing pleasure. Not sure why I never published this, as I really love the pictures. They are proof you don’t need a fancy camera to take nice photos, and yet I still bought one…

The other day I got a really bad craving for sweet potato fries. They are not available at many restaurants I go to, and I miss them so I decided to make them. I didn’t want to actually fry them as someone told me fried foods are a bit unhealthy. I decided the bake them instead. They were super delicious but I didn’t want to call them Sweet Potato Fries because that name is misleading. These do not live up to the name fry as they were not completely crunchy on the outside and mushy in the center. When I held them up they flopped down, definitely not worthy of the title fry, but nonetheless delicious. I think you could probably rectify the lack of crunch by broiling for a bit at the very end. Anyhoot here’s what I did:
I cut up the sweet potatoes into sticks.
I sprayed a cookie sheet.
I spread the sweet potatoes on the sheet.
I brushed them with olive oil.
I grated parmesan cheese on the top.
I ground sea-salt and black pepper onto them.
I baked them in the oven at 415 degrees for 15 minutes.
I flipped them all over, brushed them with oil, grated cheese onto them, and then seasoned them.
I returned them to the 415 degree oven for another 10 minutes.
Then I ate them all, only sharing a few with Tex.
We both really liked these things I call Sweet Potato Sticks.
