"President Theodore Roosevelt loved celebrating Christmas. Even when he spent some years living the life of a cowboy in the West, he wanted to eat something special for Christmas. He made these potatoes for his prairie companions one Christmas. It had several errors 2 1/2 cups vegetable oil and 2 cups thyme, I have put them at more manageable levels. Now he was cooking over campfire, so he may have deep fried the potatoes and drained them, I'm not."
