      How funny! We are doing a baked potato bar tonight for our church home group! Complete with broccoli & cheese, chili, butter, sour cream, ham and bacon! Hope we both have awesome potatoes!

      My Kroger had bacon BOGO this week–I would have added some of that to give it a bit more protein. Looks yummy!

      broccoli is a bit more expensive here in Oregon: about $1.79 a pound.But this does look yummy.

      From Aliisa:

      Just wanted to let you know that when buying a pineapple, if you just pull on one leaf gently and it comes out…the pineapple is perfect to buy.

      My MIL taught me that and it works every time!!

      I like to add diced tomatoes to my potatoes. I prefer roma because they squeeze out a little bit easier and have a firm skin. Now I want this for dinner 🙂
