    2       tb           Cornstarch
      1/4   c            Water
    1       c            Chopped onion
      3/4   c            Diced celery
    2       ts           Salt

   Potatoes should be firm, cooked, peeled, diced and
   still hot. Fry bacon in a large skillet until crisp.
   Remove the bacon, drain on paper towels, then crumble;
   reserving the bacon fat. Dissolve cornstarch in water.
   Saute onion and celery in the reserved bacon fat over
   medium heat for about 5 minutes, or until onions are
   translucent. Add salt, sugar, pepper and dissolved
   cornstarch to the skillet. Next, add vinegar and bring
   to a boil over medium heat for 3 minutes. Add the hot
   potatoes and crumbled bacon, stirring gently. Serve
   hot, garnished with the sliced stuffed olives.
