My baby is 7 months and she does really good with baby food when should I start giving her regular food like mashed potatoes, and things like that?

You can try her on it now! My son (born 7th July) won't eat it at the minute, he keeps gagging, so I'm going to leave it a couple of weeks and try again. Good luck! :)
