What's for dinner?
The other night I made one of these for dinner. Now, I'm not saying that this is what Martha Stewart makes for her family or anything. But it was yummy! And easy. And we both had seconds.
So basically, a winner.
And while I'm the topic of food, I have to share the most amazing, delicious recipe for mashed potatoes that I've ever tasted. Which is really saying something, because I love me some carbs and have enjoyed a lot of mashed potatoes in my time.

4 red potatoes, unpeeled and chopped into small pieces
4 cloves of garlic, peeled
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 parsley leaves
2 tablespoons chopped chives
Salt and pepper to taste
In a large saucepan, combine potatoes and garlic. Pour over enough water to cover and set pan on high heat. Bring to boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer for 10 minutes, until potatoes are fork tender.
Drain and return potatoes and garlic to cooking pot. Add buttermilk and mash until large lumps disappear. Folk in parsley, chives, salt and pepper.
