Steak and homemade mashed potatoes! YUM!

Albert mentioned that he didn't really like eating mashed potatoes because no one could quite make it like his mother.  Well, today I think I just beat Mom at her son's favorite recipes! (Also one of the easiest)  In addition to that, I fried some steak with gravy and steamed some veggies. A yummy, hearty meal.
