Extrodinary Yet Ordinary

If i ever had to choose one staple food to live on, i would choose potatoes. There are so many ways to prepare them, all of which are so delicious. My favorite two types of potatoes are mashed potatoes and baked potatoes.

Not all mashed potatoes are good though. Many times, the mashed potatoes served in restaurants are the processed and packaged types. This means that it is not fresh but instead prepackaged in a powdery form, and then mixed before it is served. More often than not, it tastes of cardboard. There is a rather distinct taste to it. I find this rather disappointing as something so yummy is spoiled. Mashed potatoes should always be made fresh from scratch.

I slowly unwrap the foil covering the steaming baked potato. The aroma fills the room as i cut it in half and cover it with melting butter. Ahhh! Yes, this is how i like my baked potatoes: just with lots of butter. Other toppings for baked potatoes are sour cream, salt, yoghurt, even different types of brown sauces, but my favorite is baked potatoes with butter.

Just a note: My source of motivation to write this was the fact that i had mashed potatoes for dinner today.


Just a random thought:
We know that every individual on earth is unique and special in their very own way, and that there are no two identical individuals. So, since everyone is inimitable…i mean everyone is EXTRODINARY, that would make us all ordinary right?

What makes someone special? The fact that he/she is one of a kind, unique or exceptional. Hence, if everyone is special; then no one is special anymore right? We’re all just different and diverse. Bummer! I wanted to be special.
