Planning weekends upstate is a favorite past time of mine. I love shopping and menu planning but some weekends I come unprepared and home fries always come to my rescue. Potatoes keep well and are the perfect breakfast accompaniment for fried eggs. Also, I love to add whatever herb is doing well in our herb patch; chives do well all growing season up here in the cool Catskill mountains. Home fries are simple, good but extremely filling. Good thing we have a 10 mile bike ride to the farm in front of us and a day of planting potatoes!
