Mom’s Potato Salad

My Mom’s a great cook. Well, most mothers are. But, she had this recipe, a few years back, that I just had to get from her. Potato Salad. I was just so tired of all the cute little containers in the supermarkets, all of them with lousy potato salad. Here – you try it. You’ll probably agree – it’s the best potato salad I ever had. Good warm or cold.
