    I peal and dice the eggs. I peal and put half the potatos in a bowl i use a very large one because most of the time i make mine for a crowed . And I am a very messy cook. Then i start adding everything no specail way. I never measure just make it to your taste. I like to add spices befor the mayo . It flavores the potatos.

    If you are wondering why She did'nt use fresh onions and celery like i did for a lot of years. At that time of year she could'nt go to the store and buy them. This is best if made a day ahead and sits over night in the fridge. The flavors blend and make it taste even better.
