Mashed or roasted?

A potato decision. We had FinFam Steak Dinner tonight and I wasn’t sure what kind of potatoes to serve. Should we roast the cute little mini potatoes or mash the big russets. It turned out that we mashed the big russets. All but one. I had overbought a bit so we’ll use the fifth one some other day. And the minis. Potatoes keep a long time.

Also on the menu were rib-eye steaks that were purchased from Best Choice last spring and have been frozen ever since. The problem was that four were purchased and packaged together and we haven’t had an occasion since where that amount of meat fit the number of guests. Also caramelized onions and mushrooms, garlic bread, and salad. Smoked salmon and appetizer friends and lovely Russian candy rounded it all out.

All in all, it was a beautiful day and only a bit chilly so we sat around a faaaar in the backyard until it was time to actually eat. And that is about all. I mean, I’m sure y’all don’t want to know about doing the damn TAXES. In October, roight?

    Since I dislike mashed potatoes, I would have voted the other way! LOL I’m a big baked potato fan.
