silent excuses: regional recipie


One morning was spent on making salad for a potluck we attended. I decided on potato salad because we had lots of eggs (thanks chickens) and because if I want good potato salad (which you know I like) I have to make it myself with grandma's recipe.

When we were laying out the food our instructor looked at the bowl and exclaimed, "Oh, old fashioned potato salad".
"No" I replied, "Not old fashioned, potato salad with my mother's recipe".
After we sat down one and started enjoying our food one of the eaters asked me, "Where are you originally from."
"Michigan" my reply.
"What part of Michigan?"
"Midland".
"I wondered. I'm from Flint and this potato salad tastes just like my mother used to make."
