MOM'S SPECIAL POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• In a double boiler or metal bowl over simmering water, constantly whisk the eggs, sugar, vinegar, cream, butter, mustard and salt until mixture reaches 160° or is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Remove from the heat; cool to room temperature. Fold in mayonnaise. Chill until preparing salad., For salad, place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender. Drain and cool to room temperature. In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, celery and onion. Add dressing and pepper if desired; stir until blended. Chill until serving.

FOURTH OF JULY FLAG CAKE

Steps:

• Make the cake. I like to use a chocolate cake for this recipe, but you can use any flavor you'd like. A boxed cake mix is just fine. Or you can make my chocolate or white cake.
• Cool the cake completely. Frost with the vanilla frosting. Then top with the cream cheese frosting.
• Use the fresh berries to decorate your cake. Take a picture and dig in!

LINDA'S SPECIAL POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Peel potatoes, and boil until just done, about 20 minutes. (Just until your fork can be inserted all the way through the potato. You don't want them mushy).
• Drain well and let cool, then dice or slice potatoes. (I like a small dice, about 1/2"x1/2"). The potatoes will cut nicely once chilled and won't fall apart.
• Mix other ingredients, and add to chilled potatoes. Let set in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving for flavors to meld.
• Serve chilled.

When potatoes are done, set aside to cool for about 10 minutes then place them in the bowl with the dressing. Add black beans, corn, scallions, and peanuts. Toss to combine. Garnish with fresh herbs.
