OLD FASHIONED POTATO CAKES

This is one of those recipes where the result is never quite the same, but always good. My grandma makes these for me whenever she has leftover mashed potatoes. She usually just puts in a bit of this and a bit of that, but I have tried to provide accurate measurements. Go ahead and make if you do not have quite the right amount of some ingredient.
