Hash Browns: Attempt #1

  Introduction In general, I feel like I have to preface this post by saying it seems all over the fucking place. My apologies. I don't know if it's because that's the way my cooking went, if it's because I'm still vaguely getting over being sick, or if it's because it's the end of a Monday.
