It's time to stand up for homemade potato salad

Come on, people, it's not that hard to make. Do you really think we can't tell the difference?

    OH!

    I so agree!!! Every year we have a barbecue. I've stopped asking guests to bring a dish, as they invariably bring something barely edible picked up from the grocery deli on the way over, the worst offender being the mushy, overly-sweet, tubbed excuse for potato salad. Sure, they still bring things, but I always make sure there is plenty of homemade potato salad! Thanks, Mr. Keillor. This needed to be said out loud.
