After the main event, everyone is SOOO done with cooking. Been there, done

Tailgating Potato Salad

August 22, 2019

When I called my parent’s house last weekend, my dad was excited to be watching preseason football. It really snuck up on me this year… I can’t believe it’s time for football already!
