Can I compost all the small potatoes that I have this year, without them
sprouting up like weeds where I apply the compost? My wife refuses to
peel the marble sized ones, let alone the pea sizes! :-) Potatoes growing
where they were planted the previous year is pain enough without
exacerbating the problem.

Don't bother peeling them, boil them whole and serve with a bit of butter.
Delicious!


Hear, hear, or chould it be here, here?

I thought we'd established that... though I can't quite recall *what*
we'd established.

Hear, hear, as in 'this guy's talking sense, listen to him'
Also, it's 'bated breath' (abated, holding your breath) not 'baited
breath' which always makes me think of an open mouth with a sardine on
the tongue hoping to catch goodness knows what.
