When I was at the grammar school we did cookery lessons in te first two years.One day we were being taught how to boil potatoes.I had been cooking dinners and making cakes from age nine.We were the top stream of girls so obvioulsy quite intelligent.
When she had peeled the potatoes the teacher said
I am going to cut them up into equal sized chunks.Why?
None of us answered… so she said,So they will all be ready at once.Why did none of us answer?
I think that having been taught that at Mass the bread and wine were turned into Jesus’s body we assumed that potatoes had some mysterious religious significance.I was somewhat disappointed by the explanation.
