I'm making mashed potatoes for tomorrow's dinner. I like them just a little lumpy, but mostly smooth. I did some research and found out how to make them mostly ahead of time...great timesaver. Ya cook the potatoes, mash them, then put them in an airtight ziploc bag until the next day. The next day, heat up the cream and butter in a pot, then add the mashed potatoes and blend lightly. Ad S&P and serve ASAP
