Such a delicious line-up of Thanksgiving goodness! One problem, I looked at your "Mashed Sweet Potatoes" recipe..... it doesn't say what to do with the 1/4 cup of half-and-half. I assume you add it to the sweet potatoes after they've been mashed??? Please clarify. Thanks!

Thanks, Jan for pointing that out! I accidentally left that out. I've added in that the half-and-half gets stirred in with the butter and salt in step number 3.
