2 Tbsp cornstarch
4-6 potatoes
2 Tbsp butter

In the Afternoon:
Wash and peel the potatoes.
Cut the potatoes into 1 inch chunks.
Cook in boiling water for 10-20 minutes. Test for doneness with a fork.
Drain the water from the potatoes. Put the butter on the potatoes to let it melt.
Boil the broccoli or steam it in a pan on the stove for 3-4 minutes.
While the broccoli cooks, smash the potatoes with a masher. Stir in the sour cream and enough milk to make it smooth. Use a hand mixer if you like potatoes with no lumps. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Remove the pork roast from the crockpot.
Pour the cherry jam glaze drippings into a pan.
Bring the drippings to a simmer.
Mix 2 Tbsp cornstarch and 2 Tbsp water together.
Stir the cornstarch and water mixture into the drippings. Whisk until thickened.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Drizzle some of the glaze over the roast. Surround the roast with mashed potatoes.
Serve the remaining cherry glaze on the side.
