First of all I have to admit that I did not use the Miracle Whip (don't get it), Used yughurt instead of the Sour cream (you guessed it - don't get it), local brand mayo, no celery seeds, used whole black mustard instead of the dry mustard (don't know what that is either), the sweet pickle was the homemade mango pickle my mum makes. So the 4 stars are not really for your recipe they are for the idea I got from you and what I turned it into. And yes chilli powder for the paprika. I feel pathetic.

This is an excellent potato salad recipe. I made the recipe several hours ahead of time. I cut the recipe in half and used a large left over baked potato. I added chopped hamburger dill pickle slices to mine and used juice from the pickles instead of the juice from sweet mixed pickles that the recipe calls for. It was really god the next day. I think I will make my potato salad like this from now on but add other things to it, depending on what my tastes are at the time I make it. Thanks CountryLady for another great recipe.

In the words of Tracy Byrd, "I'm from the country & I like it that way"!!
On May 1, 2008 my husband and I started a new adventure. We'll be living in a 37 foot RV while our new home is under construction. Its out in the country on a dead end dirt road with lots of trees. For the next 4 months or so, most meals will be cooked on the BBQ and life will be full of challenges!
We love spending quality time with our friends & family - especially the grandkids!! The photo is 4 generations - my 84 year old mother, myself, my daughter & my youngest granddaughter - taken at the end of 2006.
