Hmm, from being in the store a couple of times the last few days, potatoes have gone up at least 50% since the first of the year. They were six dollars for a plain Russet ten pound bag, whereas that same ten pound bag was about four dollars at the beginning of the year.

It may just be beans and cornbread, unless we keep burning corn. * sigh *

They are still cheaper to buy than to grow.

Corn won’t grow at all on Rockey Top dirt’s too rockey by far...
That’s why all the folks on Rockey Top get their corn from a jar...
