 RH>>> I did boiled potatoes (but had to peel them) a lot when I was
 RH>>> cooking for the family while Mom was in summer school. I prefer
 RH>>> them to mashed but most of the family prefers them mashed.
 NB>>> I've been known to smash the boiled potatoes to make a somewhat
 NB>>> rustic version of mashed pototoes, mixed with plenty of butter
 NB>>> and milk.... 
 RH>> Sounds about like my mom's always lumpy mashed potatoes. (G)
 NB>> Mine still have the skins on them...    It isn't a very often
 NB>> thing anyway... 

 RH> I do potatos with skins on most of the time now. Usually I'll use red
 RH> or Yukon Gold for mashed so the skins aren't that much of a bother.
 
Pretty much all I buy are the little red potatoes, for anything...

 NB>>>>> siblings there, either, then...  My sister Tait did learn
 NB>>>>> sign, and might have been a part of that sort of bible study,
 NB>>>>> though... 
 RH>>>> Possibly so; IIRC, we met on Wednesday nights in one of the
 RH>>>> dorm lounges.
 NB>>>> If I think of it, I'll ask her if she was part of that.... 
 RH>>> Ask her if she knew Chip Green.
 NB>>> OK, I'll try to remember... 
 RH>> He's the one that got Steve and me together. He's played
 RH>> matchmaker a number of times, and last we knew, was still
 RH>> single himself.
 NB>> Just never found the right girl himself...   I forgot to ask
 NB>> Tait when I saw her... had even written it down... and thought
 NB>> of it once when sitting on my cabin porch by myself there, just
 NB>> not when she was around... oh, well, that's how it goes... 

 RH> Not a big deal anyway.

Some day I might think to ask her... (G)
