Sweet Potato on a Pool Floatie

As I was making the lemons, I thought of the phrase ‘When life gives you lemons, make lemonade’ and I was thinking, pfft…that’s actually dumb because lemons are fantastic and it’s not a realistic metaphor for hardship - you know what would really be a hardship and better metaphor, how about it’s more like, “when life gives you a raw sweet potato, and you can’t cook it because you’re in the middle of the ocean floating with no tools or power, well you can’t do much about it and that sucks” and personally I feel this is a much better saying and I’m going to try to make it a thing.

So anyway that was my ‘weird shower thought’ that made me think it would be funny to make a sweet potato on a pool floatie looking very forlorn.

Handmade by me from polymer clay, hand painted.

Potato measures about 5.5 inches tip to tip, 2.5 inches tall
