So I got this cool bedding off ebay with a pink fitted sheet for about $65 total. We really love it. My boyfriend picked it out otherwise it would have been a dark peace symbol comforter but I love this choice better. What do you...

The potato plants are showing plenty of greenery. It has taken more than a month to get this far. I followed the youtube instructions to a tee. Once the first plant broke ground I covered it with a mound of soil. I had my doubts...
