1. 1

   Peel potatoes, boil until done, drain and leave in pan to cool - overnight is fine. boil eggs. let cool. cut potatoes into cubes about 1/2" to 3/4". dice all but 3 eggs and add to potatoes. don't mix yet. in a saute pan, fry bacon and onion. drain and save grease. in a separate bowl, mix 1 11/2 cups sugar, vinegar, and water.

2. 2

   Add liquid to bacon and onions and simmer.

3. 3

   In another container mix flour and cold water. add to saute pan to thicken to a maple syrup consistency. pour mixture over the potatoes and eggs and mix together with two forks as you would a salad.

4. 4

   If you are trying to impress someone, slice the 3 remaining eggs and set them strategically on top of the potato salad. warm in oven for about 1/2 hour at 350 degrees.

5. 5

   If the potato salad seems dry, or if you have not had your yearly allotment of cholesterol, you can pour some of the bacon grease over the potato salad before heating.
