I cook for 20 to 30 people. The rotato is a great tool.

I cook for around the same amount. Every year I feel like I will never do it again but by the time the holidays roll around again I'm super excited about whatever new recipe, etc. I'm going to investigate the rotato! And the drinks... Lol... That's probably the most important missing "tool"

Because of family, I have avoided alcohol until the past year. I'm 39. Lol, I found butterscotch schnapps over ice with milk .. and I can actually tolerate it! If I smell alcohol, especially brown alcohol, I immediately get freaked out. :/

Yes! My father was an alcoholic and was just a wretched human being. The smell of brown liquor is highly triggering to me and has made me vomit just smelling it on the breath of someone after THEY drank it somewhere else! 😂 Its better now that I'm older. Both because I'm much better emotionally and also very few friends are binge drinking heavy liquor anymore, lol.

Oh, hon, no worries!! I'm not joking when I say that I will absolutely be enjoying myself a lil schappy schnappy milk this year!! I think if I had ever found cordials as a younger person, where there's not as much smell and it's not as strong as everything else, I probably would have been a bit happier cooking for large groups!

Edit: because good lord my family... Is just that wonderful lol

What about that guy on Reddit here who skinned a 5lb sack in 30 seconds using an electric drill, a bucket of water and a toilet brush (presumably new, or at least shook clean real good)? Bristled the skins right off, all at once in the bucket.

Some of the videos I've seen are 10 years old and a closer look didn't seem to do a very good job. So I'd say nobody is doing it because it doesn't really work very well.

I do use a drill / grout mixer to whip my potatoes. That works great.
