Cooking web notes

On Saturday we had a surprise 80th Birthday Party for my MIL so my hubby and I spent 12 hours on Friday cooking and preparing things for the party. I always bring potato salad to the family events and parties because everyone loves the recipe that I use which was given to me by my maternal grandma before she passed away. I am going to share it with my blog readers today.

Grandma's Potato Salad

3 hard cooked eggs, cooled
