    “The people in the country boiled their potatoes for dinner in a pot and then emptied them on a basket...”

    The people in the country boiled their potatoes for dinner in a pot and then emptied them on a basket, and set them on a basket and set it in the middle of the floor. All the family sat round the basket and took their dinner.
    Then the basket was emptied and washed and hung up to dry. Then it was clear for the next day.
