The only thing I would do differently would be to leave the skins on the 'taters.
Boy do I love potato salad, but red potato skins are the best!
I think I'll go try to burn some ice cubes, now.

I would also leave the skins on...love them.....but I would definitely use mayonnaise instead of Miracle Whip.....!

I would have let th skins on too..but....these werent the most desireable red skins....the skins were thicker...ehh so I peeled them.....and sliced them instead of cubing and having larger chunks..it was a last minute DO...ha and did what I had....

(I do mayo too...but OTHER HALF likes the whip, so its what I had)
really turned out yummy though...

so how was your fourth....we got rain.... an thunder that made me think of those who instead of celebrating might be seeking cover....

Our 4th was spent quietly.....except our village goes wild with fireworks as soon as it gets slightly dark....thank goodness they lasted only until about 10 pm.......

We did gget a nice, long soaking rain off and on all night....so the garden looks very happy this morning..;-)
