Barbara from Barbara Bakes and I have a lot in common, from the name "snow" to our family values. These Utah Scones look pretty tasty (we would call this fried dough here in NY) and is her mom's recipe that she has shared on her blog.

Mom's Potato Salad Recipe comes from Amy at The Blond Cook. Potato Salad is at most picnic tables I sitat and is a staple in the summer as far as Grumpy is concerned. When it comes to sharing family recipes, Amy does so the way I like to share. She shared a photo of her cookbook that her Mom had given her when she was 19 years old. That is a very special treat for herto have, even if her mom was being quite instructional in her book 🙂 This potato salad recipe has Old Bay Seasoning in it which really intrigues me so I'm very ready to give this one a try!

    Moms always know best so a great idea to do a roundup featuring their best. Sometimes I think the modern world forgets about old fashioned, home cooking to it's detriment. Nice job. The buttermilk biscuits might be my favorite.
