Sweet Potato Fries

Spring in Utah = warm, snow, warm, snow, rain, warm, hot, snow, etc.

In one day.

Ex. I went on a sweet trail run with my new friend Cait and looked like this by the end.

That afternoon, my husband ran home in 60 degree weather in shorts and a singlet.

But I think Cait and I had way more fun.

Onto bigger and better things.

I hate potatoes.

No joke. I truly do not like potatoes. It is an on going battle between my husband and I for me to put potatoes in curry or soup. He LOVES potatoes and never eats them because I hate them. I finally gave in with the curry, and whenever I get normal potatoes in my bowl, I just plop it right into his bowl without saying anything. I get no potatoes. He gets all the potatoes. Everybody wins.

However, I love sweet potatoes (if you haven't noticed.)

I will put sweet potatoes in anything and everything. They are so delicious (and actually have nutrition) and I like them in every form, except "candied yams" at Thanksgiving, that is just wrong, and I like them in everything. Curry. Soup. Burritos. Baked. Roasted. You name it, I love it, again, except for "candied yams".

Sweet potato fries. Those have a soft spot in my heart/stomach. I never buy the frozen kind because they are ridiculously expensive and have a whole bunch of additives. And I don't make them at home nearly as often as I should. But the other day, as in almost 3 months ago because I am really behind in posting, I was craving french fries SO BAD! It is the only food I crave when I am pregnant and I am over 1/2 through my 2nd pregnancy and have only ever given in once. We were just getting done skiing and I was STARVING and my dad decided he needed to go help my brother-in-law with his kids so hubby and I were stranded at the lodge and I could not resist. I NEEDED them.
