Us Cincinnati girls know comfort food!!
And I wonder if the fact that so many of us Cincinnati girls have that big dose of German in us is what makes us put vinegar in so many things. I'm always a little heavier on the vinegar and a little lighter on the sugar in those recipes I put here.

I do so love good German potato salad. The perfect balance of vinegar and sugar makes it work. Of course, you need about a pound of bacon in it, too.
