Born in Idaho. And I could peel 15 spuds with no pans to clean up in 15 minutes.
Jeez. :-)

Ginger.
Maryann would be sweet but would probably need a lot of work to bring up to speed. Ginger would already be there and probably know ways to hurt you along the way!

Maryann would be so much lower maintenance.

+1. There's something great about fried ones with the peel left on... and I almost always eat the skin of a baked one, especially if the skin burns when baking!

Talking about Vintage Ginger, not today's version. That's where the teenage fantasy began. About the only "vintage" chick I'd still hurt myself over is Raquel Welch. Saw a recent pic of her and she's still drop dead gorgeous.

When I was a kid, I found a potato peeler in an old barn. We cleaned it up and much to our surprise, it works...
It's a real odd looking gizmo. All metal, with gears and a fork that you stab the potato onto. Then you turn a crank, the potato spins, a blade comes down and touches the potato. As it spins, the blade slices off the skin automatically moving back and forth over the countours. It's pretty cool and probably fairly old. I think I found it in the early 70's. Other weird things I've drug home for my Dad... A complete 1936 Encyclopedia set that we still have, old wooden Ford batteries, and some glass batteries. He still has every one of my childhood Bring Home to Dad treasures - LOL! angela

You know what, I think you're right...
It would peel potatoes, but we only used small ones (I like the taste better and they were cheaper from the farmers when I was a kid). We did peel apples with it and it did that very well. So - probably is an apple peeler. Don't think there is enough throw on the arm for a big potato. angela

I thought what I was about to see would involve a bikini, her mouth, and some sexual innuendo.
I was disappointingly wrong.
