You are having mashed potatoes with the rest of your dinner.  You enjoy eating them.  However, there are many other things that you can do with your mashed potatoes.  Here are a few ideas:

1.   You can mash them on your plate until they are nice and flat.  Add two cherry tomatoes for eyes, green beans for a smile, and a carrot for a nose.  Your parents will think you are nuts.

2.   Pile your mashed potatoes high just like a mountain.  Use your toy army soldiers and play the “Battle of Mashed Potato Hill.”

3.   Substitute mashed potatoes for your shaving cream.  Wow, you’ll have a real close shave.

4.   Build an ant farm with your mashed potatoes.  Your ants will thank you for doing this.

5.   Use your mashed potatoes as a hair tonic.  Coat your bald spot with them and watch new hair grow like magic.

6.   If you have a nose bleed, put some mashed potatoes around the area of the bleeding.  Instantly, the nose bleed will disappear.

7.   Write secret messages in your mashed potatoes.  Pass the messages on to your younger brother.  Afterwards, eat the evidence.

8.   Use a cookie cutter with a heart shape, make a mashed potato Valentine and give it to your sweetheart.  To add color to your Valentine, sprinkle the mashed potatoes with horseradish.  This should really spice up your romance.
