POTATO SALAD

                  

Today’s recipe is a guest post from my daughter, Joanna!  She made a beautiful potato salad and I think you should try it with your family.  Potato salad is worth the little bit of extra time it takes to make it because it is such a wonderful side dish.  Another really great thing about potato salad is that you will most likely  have all the ingredients you need—without having to make a dash to the store.  So you can whip up a big bowl of this delightful stuff whenever the mood strikes.  Thanks Joanna for your great recipe!
