Sweet Potato Parmesan Fries & Garlic Aioli

You know those days you can’t stop eating? That was this entire week for me.

These fries were one of the primary problems.

As soon as these came out of the oven, despite completely burning my mouth, I shoved them in my face.

I think I am having a terrible reaction to the time change. Now that we have turned back the clocks an hour, I feel like my entire world is collapsing around me. Do you KNOW how dark it is when I drive home now? PITCH BLACK. It feels like it is 10pm when I come home every night. I used to be able to watch the sunset out of our front window every night. Now I leave the office and the sun has almost dipped below the mountains as soon as I reach my car.

It is totally freaking me out.

But really, these fries are a freaking revelation. I think they may be the only thing that will get me through this tumultuous time change.
