No fake chips on the mountain...
These are made right here at the Itty Bitty Chick Inn ; delicious, made to taste, 100% ALL NATURAL/ORGANIC. Scrub your potatoes well and let them dry. I make mine both ways peel on or peel off. It depends on how dirty my potatoes were when I pulled them out of the ground. Slice them very thinly, not like french fries but the fat way, and dredge them in butter.

I recently saw a You tube video where someone was drying (dehydrating) tomatoes, skin and all. My first thought was I just could not be sure about that...UNTIL I tried it. I had to, it's a thing - testing theories, etc. Keeps me out of trouble, mostly. <eye-roll> A few years ago I became ill with a virus. Since then, I seem to only be able to tolerate fresh canned from my shelf, not so much the mass manufactured goods. I simply could not stand the smell when I open cans. It

MOUNTAINISMS - Sometimes the Slang is more fun! It's colder than a well-diggers behind!
Mountainisms - She's Madder'n A Wet Hen ! What does that mean? That woman is on it and you should run the other direction if you are her target! HAHA! Have a great day out there! Stay tuned for more! It's a brand new day on the Mountain but it's been an icy one already. So far , I've not heard of too many problems on the road. People get crazy when it gets a little slippery out there; stay off the roads is my motto. HA! No Hissy Fits today, well except for that kid who wante
