One of my favorite smells is sweet potatoes baking in the oven. The aroma warms the house and lingers for hours. I enjoy sweet potatoes on cold days and evenings. My favorite way to eat them is with a pat of butter and a sprinkle of cinnamon. A good accompaniment to sweet potatoes is hog head cheese and a few crackers. As I write this, I’m have baked sweet potato with a fresh pear.
