Potato salad was always on the menu for the potluck table at Grieb family get-togethers, and at every family barbeque. The big yellow pyrex bowl filled to the top with goodness was loved by all. Aunt Ida always made a second bowl of the salad so no one went without; even with a second bowl leftovers were seldom.
