Sweet Potato Crunch



We have some fine Quarter Horses for sell. These are some of the stud horses during exercise.

 I came home to the farm Monday. I have spent the past two days cleaning and raking leaves with Momma, and playing with the nieces and nephews. The weather has been nice but too warm! The forcast calls for cooler weather on Friday and we are looking forward to that.
Today we are going to begin cooking for tomorrow's big dinner. The first thing I am going to make is the Sweet Potato Crunch. I am sharing the recipe with you below.

There are many different recipes for sweet potatoes. This is the one that we like the best.
The recipe calls for canned sweet potatoes but we have fresh sweet potatoes so I will peel 4 large sweet potatoes and boil them until tender. Then drain and beat with mixer. The mixer pulls the strings out and fluffs the potatoes.
