The Sweet Potato god

I went to a museum yesterday with a friend, and since he has a superior camera, he was able to get this picture in the dim museum interior, a picture we both wanted because the little idol was just so funny! Then he sent it to me this morning in a surprise email.

So, pic for this post courtesy of N.S. Thanks, mellon!

  1. Are you serious? Is it a potatoe? I've never seen anything quite like this. What museum was this? Tell your friend hi for me, okay? Wow, that's a lot of question marks in one short comment...

  2. Hah, lots of question marks. I'll go in order:

    1. Serious.
    2. Naw, I think it's a hunk of wood. But that's apparently the god of Sweet Potatoes ;)
    3. Bishop Museum, an interesting place . . .
    4. Okay, will do!

  3. So now the next logical question would be...is there a sweet potato casserol god? And if there is, does he/she support the use of marshmellows on top? And what do they think about brown sugar and sweet potatoes?

    Eagerly awaiting your report...
