Personal Notes:
When I was ill as a teen, and hadn't eaten much of anything for a time, my mother asked what she could make for me. I thought about it and answered, "Aunt Bate's potato salad". Mom got her recipe then, and that is how I came to have it now. Her cooked dressing turned the ordinary into a signature dish.
