I loved this recipe!! I was looking for something close to what my Great-Grandmother used to make and this was about as close as I can get! I had to add a little more relish and mustard than what it called for to get the taste I wanted but overall this is a wonderful recipe!! I got compliments from everyone who tried it, thank you!! :)

Very Good Potato salad. Just like what I make. Served with Easter Dinnner and was tagged for the Easter Egg Hunt Tag game 2009. Thanks for posting.
