Potatoes, one of the world’s staple crops, is affordable, full of vitamins, and can also be used in non-edible ways. For example, the Incas used raw grated potatoes or potato juice to treat frostbite and sunburns. Potatoes can be eaten in an infinite amount of forms, shapes, and sizes, but I’ve listed the five ultimate best ways to utilize potatoes.

1. French Fries

Oh, french fries… one of America’s most eaten foods.They not only pair well with literally anything (savory and sweet) but also is delicious eaten alone. The easy accessibility, process of making, and price make it all the reasons why it’s one of the best ways to use potatoes.

2. Hash Browns

Similar tasting and process to its relative, the french fry, the one and only hash brown is just as scrumptious. It is the best complement to any breakfast sandwich and is the best tasting when dipped in ketchup.

3. Potato Pancakes

OK, first of all, foods in pancake form are magnets that attract people’s appetites. It doesn’t matter if they’re normal old-fashioned pancakes or vegan pancakes, they’re all mouthwatering. Not to mention POTATO PANCAKES, the best pancakes of all.

Why? Well, the greatest food of all time made in the best form possible creates the absolute most appetizing cuisine.The best part is that it’s appropriate to be eaten for all meals of the day.

4. Mashed Potatoes

Traditionally eaten at family gatherings and Thanksgiving dinner, mashed potatoes are the perfect side dish. It is paired well with any savory dish and the best dipped in gravy. Turkey, mac-n-cheese, and fried chicken are my favorite complement dishes.

5. Baked Potatoes

Made in the simplest and easiest way, baked potatoes are easy to adjust the taste to. For example, to add some pizzazz to your baked potatoes, butter, shredded cheese, sour cream, and bacon are only a few melt-in-your-mouth toppings out of infinite options to place in your hot and steamy baked potatoes.

Nonetheless, potatoes made in any shape or form are going to taste heavenly!

And to make a few of these fantasies come to life, you can refer to this video:

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
