Good thing they were open.    When I make mashed potatoes, it's more
like smashed potatoes... I cook the pieces with the skins still on, and
then mash with the cooking water... then I'll add butter (the real
stuff, of course) to taste, and milk if more liquid is needed.  Haven't
done it for a while, though...  harder to get into it for just the two
of us...  :)

BTW, nice to see you back here in MEMORIES, too...  :)
