Pink Mashed Potatoes

Peel potatoes and cut into 10-12 pieces, put in pot, cover with water and bring to a boil.

Reduce the heat, and cook for about 20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.

Turn off the stove, pour the potatoes into a colander and shake to get the water off.

Put the potatoes in a bowl; with an electric mixer or hand beater, beat the potatoes, butter and a little salt and pepper, adding the milk while you mix.

Add food color carefully until it is a pretty color (if you want to make them really yucky, try mixing colors!)
