                        cooled and coarsely chopped
  12                    eggs -- hard-boiled,
                        coarsely chopped
   1 1/4  cups          mayonnaise -- to taste
  23      fluid ounces  -- (1/2 large jar) dill
                        -- or sweet pickles,
                        -- or more,
                        chopped
     1/4  cup           pickle juice -- dill or sweet,
                        whatever the pickle choice.
   1      teaspoon      salt
   1      dash          pepper -- (optional)
   1 1/2  teaspoons     dry mustard -- not prepared
   2      teaspoons     celery seed -- not salt
   1      dash          paprika -- for garnish
                        (anti-theft device)
   1                    onion -- finely diced
                        OR 2 bunches green onions -- chopped half way up

Preparation:

Boil the potatoes in their skins and hard-boil the eggs. (Boiling the day before is not a bad idea because they all have to be well cooled.) Mix everything together except the eggs. When everything is mixed up, add the eggs and mix just enough to stir them in.
