Potato Salad

Two things happen once a year.
- The Man (D) has a birthday.
- I make potato salad
That these happen around the same time is no coincidence.
He loves potato salad.
I hate to make potato salad.
However...
I believe I've got my recipe down to a science so that when I do make it, it's something to look forward to.

So, just for fun, here I'd my recipe!

1 5lb bag of red potatoes boiled and chopped
1 dozen eggs hard boiled, cooled, peeled and diced
1 bunch green onions sliced
4-5 stalks of celery diced
3-4 kosher dill pickles diced
Mayo - as much or as little as you like
Same goes for salt and pepper.

Mix it up
Eat it up

You're probably thinking '5lb's?!?'

I make it once a year, i make the batch count, we ususlly try to coincide a bbq and then we eat it all weekend!

Happy Birthday D!

Boy is that a familiar recipe. YUMMY!! I used to make it every other week in the summer when we were younger. It was requested by all our friends, I still have the large orange and yellow Tupperware bowls I used.

It's loosely based off of my MIL's she doesn't add the celery, or the onion, and she uses russet potatoes... I like crunchy potato salad so I'll add more celery than anything...

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...
