Mashed Potatoes

    2 pounds of potatoes
    1 cup of milk
    6 tablespoons of butter
    Salt and pepper, to taste

Peel and quarter the potatoes and add them to a pot with just enough
water to cover all the potatoes. Heat water until boiling. Lower heat
until simmering and cook until the potatoes are tender (about 15 -20
minutes). Drain and add milk and butter. Mash and season with salt
and pepper.
