8:00 Am - You don't cook for lots of people without adequate help.
We've noted many times on these pages that rather than look for the illegal Mexican help that is prevalent here, we prefer indentured Minnesota labor.

Two Toned Potato Salad
I don't have the recipe for this because wife made it. But it has both white and sweet potatoes plus capers, onions, parsley, mustard, mayonnaise, and celery.
4:00 PM - Indentured Minnesota laborer still at it.
Where we got our recipes
Correspondent In the Sticks asked if we had searched the Internet for the recipes or if we made them up. We actually went to our library of cookbooks primarily Mahdur Jaffrey's World Vegetarian, Rick Bayless' Secrets of Mexican Cooking, and Richlen's Barbeque Bible.

Yummy!! And those desserts look amazing!! My grandmother used to use rhubarb a lot but I didn't taste much of it because I thought it 'rhubarb' sounded terrible.
The two-toned potato salad.... YUM! That's a great twist on a traditional favorite.
I hope you rewarded your indentured Minnesota servant for all of her hard work. You better have! (Sorry to yell at you, but I've gotta take care of my fellow Minnesota peeps.)
phew, I am really wondering if I'll be able to stand the heat of those chile dishes come December. Some of them look hardcore!
