So now that we have come to the mere realization that everyone adores potatoes, its time to break all stereotypes and show some REAL love to those we hold close to our hearts. Who made the “giving gifts” rule stick with just the boring perfume bottles (umm, no?) turtlenecks (GEEZ), watches (boooo), or the other basic stuff? Since we all love potatoes so much, why can’t we ship or mail a potato(es) to a friend, family member, or our significant other over an occasion! They are healthy, nutritious, adorable, and will make anyone you send it to laugh like crazy!
And who says you can only send the original flavored potatoes? Send a sweet potato to your sweetheart! So how can you do that? There are two ways to do so, and we’ll take a look at them one by one. But first, let’s see what you can do with the potato itself!
There are literally dozens of ways you can decorate a potato and customize it for whomever you want to send the potato to. The best idea is to craft a heartfelt message for your loved one on a petty colored paper and stick it to the potato. Or you can write a very small message on the potato itself with a marker, preferably a colored one because colors are lovely! Words or drawings, use whatever you like and pour your heart out for your loved one.
Here’s another idea! You can also add pictures of the person you are sending the potato to, and add an inside joke between the two of you. The more personal it is, the better it is, and the more they are going to adore it!
Also remember, the bigger the potato, the larger the surface area to write your message!
There is more than one way to ship a potato, one a little troublesome and the other, trouble-free. Let’s take a look:
There are several postal services throughout the state that offer to ship your potato at the desired address. Just like how you use these delivery services to send in normal, boring gifts to your loved ones, you can use the same services for sending in the potato. Here are five steps that make shipping easier;
STEP 1
Time to go grocery shopping! Pay a visit to your groceries or farmer’s market and select your desired potato. Better to choose a smooth potato, as it will make it easier to write or stick things on. Don’t forget to save the weighing receipt, as you will need it to apply to the postage later on. It’s ideal to save some dough and keep the potato under 13 oz and ship your potato First Class.
STEP 2
Now its time to write your message and the recipient's address on the potato. Make sure you mention the address details very clearly.
Heartfelt or a witty and whacky message on the opposite side of where you wrote the address. Need some ideas? Here!
Make sure you add the correct amount of postages, as they are based on weight.
Send it through the mail or delivery service and let it sail!
Remember that there are some timing troubles as well as payment issues that you might have to face when you are sending a potato through regular services. So keep an eye out!
Let the experts handle this! Now that is where the real fun lies at! Anonymous Potato, like the name indicates, is a website that ships potatoes to your desired addresses, anonymously! Whoever you send the potato to will never know that you sent the potato, that is unless you tell them.
The best thing about Anonymous Potato is that you don’t even have to go through the trouble of going to your grocer’s for buying potato or even decorating it. Because the website has that handled too! All you have to do is log on to the website and surf through the plethora of ideas Anonymous Potato has for you. From customized messages to pictures, and jokes, all you have to do is pick a potato of choice and follow these steps!
Pick a potato of your choice from the website. There are tons of ideas.
When you proceed to the checkout page, this is what you will see:
**NOTE - You must type the ADDRESS of the RECIPIENT, YOUR EMAIL (Not the recipient), and include your Anonymous Message & Instructions under the “SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR SELLER” upon Checkout.
Make sure that you follow all the instructions very carefully. And don’t forget to type in some anonymous messages!
You can add some spice to your shipment by adding the Burlap SACK!
Confirm your order and Voila!
There you go, proof that potatoes are amazing gifts too! So the next time its Valentine’s Day or any other special occasion, you won’t have to lose your marbles thinking about what to give your loved one!

All of a "spudden" I thought of you.
Are you scratching your head again, thinking what will you gift your loved one this Valentine’s day? Don’t worry; we have some really fun ideas listen down for you.

“Love.” The word itself seems quite generic. It means lots of things; the attitudes, state, related to a billion feelings and a thousand emotions, all of which are profound to affection and attraction. But, when you feel like you have found “the one,” love is all directed to a specific person. This is how it takes up a new meaning and a new form. From “just a feeling,” love becomes a precious emotion within itself and takes the form of promises.
To rejoice this love each year, we have a day reserved just for our beloveds that celebrate love in all forms; Valentine’s Day. The day marks the making of new promises and keeping true to those you made last year. Every year, you do something nice that shows how much you love your significant other. You dedicate yourself once more to your loved one. But that’s not all there is to Valentine’s Day. It is also a day when you are riddled with apprehension, and you cannot figure out what gift is equally as precious as your loved one.
There are no lies in saying that lovers wait eagerly for Valentine’s Day to see what they receive this year. And that stresses you out for sure. But don’t worry. Take off your thinking caps, and let us help you crack this mystery! These fun-filled ideas are the perfect ideas that will remind your lovers of you, and they will absolutely adore these!
There is nothing funnier, better, and more romantic than a sweet potato for your sweetie. Who knew sweet potatoes could be so much more than just edibles? As the name indicates, these anonymous potatoes are delivered by mail to your loved one’s address, without mentioning that you sent it. You can type a customized message for it to be displayed on the sweet potato. It is creative and perfect!
It is time to show them that you will always be there. LITERALLY. Choose a top-quality canvas and get prints of your favorite time together. It can be any place that you visited together or some memory that just you two have shared. You can also add a customized text on canvas prints and add as many decorations you want. Canvas prints are sweet reminders of beautiful moments spent together.
Helpful gifts are always a plus point and what is better than something as essential as laptop bags. Laptop bags are useful for almost everybody, especially for those who have to travel because of work. When you give them a customized laptop bag with a picture of you two together or a customized message, they will be reminded of you. It not only shows that you love them but also that you support them.
Photographs are adorable. They are timeless memories of invaluable time spent together. And there are many creative ideas regarding photographs. One of the most artistic and interesting ideas are explosion boxes. These boxes are made in different shapes such as hearts or flowers that are twirled together to form a box. On every patter, pictures are posted. You can also add small texts, and if you have traveled together anywhere, you could also add souvenirs!
Flowers are the most traditional gestures of love. And who isn’t a fan of flowers? However, you can add a tinge of a surprise to it. Send flowers, anonymously! They will guess it for sure, but they will love the idea. Sending them flowers with cards or small gifts are the perfect ideas to get your sweetheart thinking of you again!
Can you think of anything better than an everlasting memory of love? There are things better than fresh flowers, that’s a fact. There is a preserved rose carefully tucked in a silver or gold box. Unlike the fresh flowers that stay alive for less than a week, this preserved rose lasts a lifetime!
From your hand to her heart! “Saying” I love You can get better. Writing it down and preserving it, how romantic is that? You can write down the I love You and get a bracelet for your sweetheart in sterling silver, gold, or rose gold.
There is just something about the old trends when love letters were written. Letters are always effective and win hearts in no time. Here’s the catch, you can get a What I Love About You Journal and fill it with reasons why you love them, inside jokes, memory reminders, and future plans. It is a real ride to the sentimental realm.
Keeping things just between the two of you is a great idea to show her how important she is. And there is a smart idea to do it. Use the morse code to customize a necklace for her! It can be any personal message, a nickname, or anything else that is important to both of you. A necklace specially designed only she can decode will definitely make her feel important and love you more than ever before!
There has to be a place that reminds you of each other! You can map out the beginning of your love story, where you first met, where you first had the most fun together. You can choose the exact location, add a heartfelt message, and your names. It’s perfect!
There is nothing cuter than hand-written notes and letters. They have a way of winning hearts. So why not modify them a bit? The 365 reasons Jar is as romantic as it can get. You can divide these letters into good days, bad days, and reasons why I love You. This jar is the gateway to love, that’s for sure.
Now that is something wonderful! The 100 Movie Scratch-off Poster will help you save time in deciding which movie to watch. Just scratch and you will know which movie to watch next! Instead of rewatching the same shows, you can catch something good together, and there is no match for Dirty Dancing!
A picture can speak a thousand words, and when there is a picture of you two that you just can't stop staring at, Wooden Picture Frames are your ways to go! You can stick your favorite picture in there and use it as a decoration piece that can be cherished for years to come.
Its time to connect the dots! Decorate a drawer and engage the five senses. Add something creative for the sight, smell, touch, hear, and taste. You can add gifts accordingly, such as essential oils, chocolates, perfumes, or something that your significant other likes best!
One of the best ways of celebrating love with your Valentine is giving them a “look-back” of memories. This frame consists of every date that mattered to you throughout your love story. The day you first met to the day when you got married and every milestone that you reached together, can be preserved with this frame.
So, here is a list of gifts that will make your Valentine’s Day, THE BEST Valentine’s Day ever! Your partner will be swoon! For more fun ideas, don’t forget to visit Anonymous Potato! They make sure your partner loves these ideas!
]]>BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) once tricked the whole nation into believing, that spaghetti grows on trees in Switzerland.
Taco Bell assured everyone that they bought the Liberty Bell, now to be known as Taco Liberty Bell. The
Dick Smith, a local adventurer, and millionaire businessman had been loudly promoting his scheme to tow an iceberg from Antarctica for quite some time. Everything was going as planned until rain gave away the prank being merely shaving cream and firefighting foam.
Yes, we are self-promoting with our number one April fools prank. Sorry, but we are not sorry. Now there are numerous things you can do with an Anonymous Potato to make your Aprils fools joke memorable. Before we get into some ideas lets address the elephant in the room. Yes, you could necessarily tell someone in person or write your prank on paper and deliver it to them, but we feel you have a better chance of invoking the feeling of truthfulness through our novelty gift. There is something to be said for having the message delivered from a third party telling your custom story or a message. We believe the Anonymous Potato is attention-grabbing and offers authenticity that is needed to deliver the punch line. Now you will need to plan it out as April 1st delivery is not always guaranteed, but having your joke come a day or two before or after can add to the climax.
We don't advocate destroying people's property or hurting them (physically or mentally), but everything else is fair game! Happy pranking!

As you can see, there are so many different things you can do and set up with an Anonymous Potato. Oh, and you can put photos on them as well :)
lol do we have to explain this one?
In our example, we have Nicholas Cage, but you can use anyone or anything you want here. Every time someone makes a copy, they will have the image you taped to the copier on it.
Now, this is just wrong, lol. Putting on the nail polish will prevent the soap from lathering thus preventing the person from actually cleaning themselves.
Okay, identify a person you want to prank that has a good personality and then print out these signs with their phone number on it. You will be surprised by how many voicemails they will receive.
Like the insect lamp prank, you will need to print and cut out the spider. From here all you have to do is place it and tape it.
Those round out our top 10 April Fools' Day pranks! If you have any more ideas, please feel free to share below as we would love to hear what you are doing. :)

Lakomi is an upper-mid content wolfdog who lives in a sanctuary. She was found surviving in the wild at 8 months old, however, it quickly became apparent that she had been bred and partially raised in captivity. At the time of her rescue, she was wearing a harness intended for an 8 week old. Her skin had grown over the harness and removing it took hours of surgery and months of medication to fight an infection that nearly took her life. When I first got to the sanctuary I was told that she was crazy and wouldn't ever be socialized. Her enclosure has fences that are 14 feet high because she would routinely jump or climb up 12-foot fencing and hang by her jaw at the top. Since I began working on socialization with her that behavior has stopped. She took about two months of daily exposure before she would allow physical contact, but once that wall came down she quickly became playful, sweet, loving, and my personal favorite animal in our charge. Lakomi is a gorgeous example of the redemptive power of love, and being able to know her is one of the greatest privileges of my life.
A side note: the fur on her belly is thin because she had been spayed several months prior to this video. She is entirely healthy :)

via Coast Monthly
At least it is in Galveston, Texas where they will be hosting their 5th Annual Ohana Surf Dog Competition on July 16th. You can expect to see between 25 to 30 dogs hitting the beach to surf it out for the title of Big Dog on Campus or ocean. The Top three Big Dogs can win trophies, toys, treats, gift certificates, and all-time canine bragging rights. Now that's an ocean that bites.
Have a dog that can compete? Registration starts at 8:00 am and will cost you a $25 donation, with surfing taking place in 10-minute heats from 9:00 am-12:00 pm. The contest is limited to 30 dogs to prevent any overheating or dehydration of the animals. So tag someone who owns a dog that wouldn't have a ruff time riding the waves.
The judging is based on surfing style, comfort, and responsiveness to owners.

Don't have a four legged friend you can enter? That's okay, there will be dogs available for adoption at the event. Because this event couldn't get any more adorable.
via Houston Culture
This event gets even better! All proceeds from the event go to the Galveston Island Humane Society, which will have trainers on hand to help make sure all the dogs are properly pitted. If you can't make it down but want to contribute because you're an awesome human being who does awesome things, you can do so here.

Danielle, are you okay bro?
Just checking in after the 'infamous'"Cash Me Outside"Instagram was hacked Tuesday, March 7th, 2017. Currently, no exact source has pinpointed who hacked her account, but her fan base seems to think it was the 'Illuminati.'
The hacker left this bizarre video with the creepy caption around 1:30 pm.
