Soup



Sometimes I like rainy, do-nothing days.
Today I stayed in my comfy sweats,
 turned on some music, and made
Potato Soup.



3 1/2 cups peeled and diced potatoes
1/3 cup diced celery
1/3 cup chopped onion
3/4 cup diced cooked ham (or bacon) *optional
3 1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper (ground black)
5 tablespoons butter
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk

Combine: potatoes,celery, onion, ham, and water in pot.
Bring to boil. 
Reduce to medium and cook till taters are tender :)  (about 10-15 min.)
Stir in bouillon, salt & pepper
In a separate pan: melt butter over med./low heat.
whisk in flour
stir until thick
slowly add milk, stirring till thick.
Mix both pots together, and you have soup ! 

It's easy and SUPER yummy !!! 
It's one of our favorites ! :)

*loving...
a rainy day
cozy sweats
smell of homemade soup

XOXO
