Personal Notes:
This recipe tastes best when prepared at least 3-4 hours ahead of time so that all of the dressing has time to be absorbed into the Potatoes. It actually will always taste best the following day after it is made. If refrigerate the potato salad overnight, you will need to re-warm it, as this is a dish to be served room temperature or slightly warmed.
