Bizi I wanted to try this recipe and thought i could use some left over ingredients to make it. Then when i looked it up i realized it called for russet potatoes which is not what i had left over lol... i ended up making something a bit different - including the fact that i put a red onion in there for the missing color of the russet potatoes. I also had to sub a small amt of milk for the sour cream which is unavailable here. i had white yogurt but my dad really doesn't care for the sour aspect of sour cream so i thought there'd be a better chance he'd like what i made if i steered clear of sour stuff.

may be someday.... or some year ... i will be able to try the exact recipe... sigh.

anyway just posting to say i pilfered a lot of guidelines from this recipe even though what i made was different. without having seen this, i would never have had the idea to make what i did. So thanks for the inspiration!!

~ waves ~ who didn't near-destroy food or pans today (WOW). instead, i just burned myself on the oven. lately i can't cook without something going awry. thank goodness for lavender oil (heals 1st degree burns fast, no blistering and no scarring).
