Zone 5 – Favorites On The 5th – Potatoes and Corn

I welcome you to ‘Zone 5 Favorites on the 5th’. I’ve started posting on the 5th of every month, redirecting visitors to a favorite posting relative to zone 5.

This month, we are talking vegetables. Not growing them, though that would tie in nicely with a garden blog. Peeling them. Yep, peeling vegetables. We do that in zone 5 as well.

We are going to travel outside of the blogosphere to the strange and wonderful world of YouTube. Speaking of travel, do you remember Gilligan’s Island? Yep, the series from way back in the 60s? Stretch your memory to envision the girl next door, Mary Ann. Her real name is Dawn Wells, and she has a video on peeling potatoes. Yep, peeling potatoes. Perhaps she knows something you don’t. Let’s take a look at her potato video.

An interesting tidbit: In 2005, Dawn consigned for sale her original gingham blouse and shorts ensemble from her signature role. A Beverly Hills auction house, Profiles in History, sold it for $20,700.

Then there’s Ken. He has a video on shucking corn. Yep, shucking corn. I don’t think he is famous, or has sold any ensembles for $20,700. Still, he may know something you don’t. Let’s take a look.
