Day 1371 - Do the mashed potato!


Greetings, Bloggy Potato Heads!

We eat mashed potatoes year 'round, but there is something special about them on Thanksgiving...

My cousin makes our mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving Day using her mothers recipe. The recipe is from scratch, and uses potatoes, cream cheese, and cream.

We all sit around the kitchen table the night before Thanksgiving, peeling and peeling, and talking and laughing.

That little floating island of fluffiness, with a MOAT of gravy surrounding it, can only be topped by the 'sister island' of stuffing next to it.

Kind of like Prudence and Patience islands in New England, yes?

TTFN and ARE YOU GETTING HUNGRY YET?

Comments:
Oh my God, still no comments about the mound of potatoes! I just have to write something!

Maybe we could shape it into the mountain on "Close Encounters"... (I keep seeing a mound of potatoes..)
 
Busy day, and looking forward to tomorrow with 12 of us together for lobster! No mounds of potatoes, just lobster and loved ones galore!
