Hi Lori, I have posted about them before, but it *is* kind of hidden. Don't worry mashed potatoes are on the list to be posted within the next few days. In the meantime there are some tips here: http://www.home-ec101.com/walnut-crusted-roast-be... and here: http://www.home-ec101.com/company-mashed-potatoes... (these potatoes have so much going on that it's ok if they are a little overworked).

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday too! I consider it to be the most meaninful and most far-reaching since everybody has something they should be thankful for! Love the picture of the feast.

For mine, I mash them a bit and then take the mixer to them, adding real butter and half and half.

Hi! Post a recipe for mashed potatoes. You may think they are easy-peasy; but mine never come out savory. I started using hot (warm) milk, but how do you get "special" Thanksgiving mashed potatoes?

lol I'm stealing it too! I'm not hosting this year, thankfully. I still need to do a run on my lavendar chocolate cake to see if it tastes any good. Thankfully, I have plenty of willing guinea pigs.
