Goat Cheese Mashed Potatoes

I am home for break. I've got plenty to do with filling out graduate school applications and a research project to finish, but that only keeps my interest for so long. Pretty soon I'm going to start typing in "application language." i.e. Explain why this recipe is delicious in 500 characters or less:

So, I want to cook for my family for an application break. Mom responded with a resounding "HURRAH!" and my Dad simply said, "No weird stuff. And no eggplant. And go easy on the beans." Got it, dude.

These are not my family's standard mashed spuds. They're gravy-less, but the potatoes got family approval. Phew! My Dad didn't even realize goat cheese was mixed in, but he still ate two large helpings. I'd say it's a winner.

No picture due to the fact that I forgot my camera at school. I, however, managed to remember the charger. What kind of life am I living?
