GOBBLE GOBBLE GOBBLE

Happy belated Thanksgiving everyone! Hope you all had a good one. We went to Auntie Barbara's. She really out does herself every year. Fabulous cook. She made the best pumpkin pie I have ever eaten. Catch that? I said PIE not SLICE..LOL. Ok, I confess, I ate the whole damn thing, but not in one day. I think I may have shed a tear on that last bite...mmmmm. Missing from attendance (but not from out hearts) were my brothers in law and their kids. We have to share them with their relatives in N. Carolina. So we will be having a 2nd Thanksgiving dinner to celebrate with them. Everyone told what they were thankful for, Steve said he was thankful Kevin and Chris were 1000 miles away, and I am thankful I WILL NOT be pregnant next Thanksgiving as its been 2 in a row! So I brought the mashed potato's. And this year, I used a potato ricer. Has anyone ever tried one? Its my favorite new gadget. No lumps, no mashing, no beating. Just boil them as normal (or microwave) them put them through the ricer, add milk and butter and stir. THATS IT! It was only about $6.00, and its probably been around for century's, but its the first Ive heard of it. Anyone who makes real mashed potato's, has got to try this!
