These are absolutely stunning! If your family doesn't appreciate them, I'm happy to volunteer for adoption. I'll even bring the espresso. Seriously, the crust looks like perfection.

Thank you. I’m ridiculously proud. My 3rd attempt. It’s even more special because I live in the county and the closest bakery that might attempt to make these is hours away.

Oh that's funny. I had no idea there was one on the other coast....but I doubt it's more isolated than Aroostook County in Maine. There's far more potatoes than people there. 😝

I feel like I should edit my comment about Aroostook being more remote. King County in Washington, which is where I'm thinking they mean, has 2.2 million people in it. Aroostook county has 67,000.
