Mashed Potatoes anyone?

So when it comes to the kitchen, I know how to make about 5 things.

  1. Ice Cream
  2. Bread
  3. Mashed Potatoes
  4. Cinamon rolls
  5. Cookies

Lucky for me that covers all 5 food groups…..at least in my book.

I was tagged with making mashed potatoes for our family dinner on Sunday.  This time I had a lot of help!

Spencer was a busy man peeling potatoes for me.  I think he peeled about 6 or more large potatoes.  I was totally impressed.

Tyler helped out as well.  I finally had to tell both of them to stop as I couldn’t fit any more potatoes in the pot.

Alice got in on the action and helped me cut the potatoes up.

Tyler and Spencer helped me finish the job.  The result was perfect mashed potatoes.  Pretty soon these young ones will be able to make all of this stuff on their own.  It is fun to see them learn and enjoy the process.

Grannie made some amazing Boneless Beef Short Ribs that went perfectly with the mashed potatoes.  We ate like Kings last night.

I might have to do a mashed potatoes throwdown with Dave, Doug and Maeser!!!  They are the true masters.  I think Doug can’t be touched when it comes to potatoes.  I think Dave is the master at roast.  Maeser is right on their tails in both departments.  I just like to talk smack with them and get them all worked up.  Who wants to be a judge?
