Planting Spuds

I got my blue potatoes prepared and planted.  On Saturday I cut the 10 pounds of blue seed potatoes into pieces so that each chunk had at least 3 eyes on it.  This amounted to 3 or 4 pieces per potato.  Starchy blue juice ran over onto my kitchen table.  I let those pieces dry out until Monday night when I put each piece into the ground.  I watered the ground pretty well so the taters will take off.  I hope to serve blue potatoes on Thanksgiving.
