1. I wash 'em, chop 'em, boil 'em, and mash 'em. Oh, and add a bunch of raw milk or cream, garlic and butter! I never peel them, the skins are packed with good things and I like the taste. I usually just mash with a fork.
2. I have a hard time turning my thermostat down. It's set at 72. I used to justify it by saying that I didn't want the baby to get cold, but she throws her blankets off regardless. It's me who is freezing when it's 68 degrees. I hate being cold. The other thing, is that I like the idea of using cloth wipes instead of toilet paper, since that was the one paper product I couldn't get rid of, but I put it off and I think people would think we were gross. I also buy disposable wipes for my daughter because it's SO MUCH EASIER to deal with poop that way. I have lots of cloth wipes and really there's no excuse. ARGH!
