I wanted potato soup since it was cold outside. I read quite a few recipes, but nothing jumped out at me, so I "winged" it. My dad said he wasn't very hungry, so " just give me a little". He went back for more,twice! Then he said my stepmom prided herselfon her potato soup, but mine was the best he had ever eaten! High praise, indeed! Even hubby had 2 full bowls & he thinks soup alone doesn't count as a meal! LOL!
