Sour Cream Potatoes
One of my favorite things in the entire world would have to be mashed potatoes. Dont ask me why. I can literally eat just mashed potatoes for dinner. Theyre just so yummy. This recipe I cant take any credit for. Like a lot of my recipes on here this has been given to me by my grandmother, Gogo.
