Good morning and welcome back to the game!

Yes, I'll go ahead and confirm the obvious that the new topic will be out later today!

I haven't had a "break" in the game before, so I'm hoping that people convince me that it's a good idea by all coming back!*G*

So how was everyone's extended weekend? How are you planning on getting by this week?*G*

My mashed potatoes are easy and yumm-o! Alas, I somehow managed to screw up the Pepperidge Farm stuffing - came out too dense... ah well.

For the mashed taters:
I used about 6-7 large potatoes (to feed 4-6 people, with leftovers); peel and cut into smaller pieces; put into a pot of COLD water, just enough water to cover the potatoes. Cover the pot (water boils faster that way) and bring to a boil. Uncover, reduce heat to medium, and cook until fork-tender (ie: if you can easily stick a fork into one of the larger pieces, it's done).

Drain the potatoes, then return to the pot. Add 1 to 1-1/2 sticks of butter (cut into slices), stir in. Add about 1/2 cup of milk or half-n-half. Get out the electric handmixer and beat until smooth (yes, right in the pot), adding more milk if needed to achieve a good consistency. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve and enjoy!

That's pretty much the way I do it.
