I created this recipe for homemade potato chips and on a day when she had friends over for a playdate, I served them with ketchup. I watched and listened while these little friends dipped and double dipped, giggled, munched, and had the cutest, most interesting conversation over this simple bowl of homemade potato chips. Something so simple made special.

My neighbours never forgot the figs. Here, with figs out of season, we switched them up with pears.
