It was time for the annual Potato-Salad Contest in Russet Park. After trying for the third time, Alexis shook her head sadly. There was no way she would win the Golden Potato again because Grandpa wasn't here this year.

Memories of how Grandpa taught her to make potato rose in her mind. She sighed and missed Grandpa so much.

Alexis cut the potatoes and mixed the boiled potatoes, some sauces and a little salt and peppers in a bowl. But it didn't taste right. Alexis tried a bite of the salad mixture, wondering what was missing. Seeing her frown, Mom suggested, "What about something spicy? Your Grandpa loved spicy things."

"You're right! Maybe he put a jalapeno pepper in it," Alexis said, cutting up a bright green jalapeno and adding it to the bowl.

It was closer, but it still didn't taste right. Alexis was drooping her head, disappointed. "Should we look in a cookbook?"

"Grandpa was never one to follow a recipe," Dad entered the kitchen and said.

It was true. People loved Grandpa's potato salad because it was one of a kind. Alexis remembered posing with Grandpa for a photo while they were making the salad.

Photo! That gave her an idea. Alexis hurried to the bookcase and found an old photo album. She immediately flipped it open, expecting to find clues in the photos there. Lots of photos showed Grandpa and Grandma cooking together. Dad laughed, "He and Grandma loved to tease each other but he always called her Honey."

"Do you think he put honey in the potato salad?" Mum asked.

"It is worth a try," said Alexis. She stirred some honey into the bowl.

But it still wasn't quite right. Alexis' heart sank, on the verge of giving up. Dad kept flipping the album. At the end of the album was the picture of Grandpa and Alexis making the salad together.
