Oh yeah baby, I lurrrve yukon gold potatoes, especially mashed with
butter and nutmeg and salt and pepper. So you can freeze them all
ready mashed and ready to eat, then just microwave them? I wonder if
I could get them int the freezer before I eat them ;-) Potatoes are
relatively kind to my BG, especially prepared with butter or fried,
but portion size is definitely a struggle the calories worry me.

Have you an idea of when you might be back in your own home and done
with hotel living Lee?

Angela prefers the instant for mashed. It's easy to keep those around. I
just make them with water and nucoa. No milk. Have to add extra salt and
pepper to compensate.

We just got some WinCo food stores in this area. Alas, not close enough to
where we are to make it feasible. There is one in Everett and we were there
yesterday for a dance show. They had a 10 pound bag of potatoes for 88
cents and some other incredible buys! But when I Mapquested it from the
venue, it was nearly 7 miles away and that took us even further from home.
So we didn't go there. Could be they will put some more in there.

Food Emporium just closed down so it is just sitting there waiting for some
new place to come in.
