I was going to make potato soup this week but the grocery store was totally out of the potatoes I buy. I buy them partially because of the fact that I don't need to peel them or cut them at all and also because they have a fantastic flavor. I was soooo angry when I saw they were all gone. I started swearing to myself and grumbled through the rest of my trip. I REALLY wanted that soup!

I love potato soup! My mom always made homemade potato soup for use when we were sick. It's one of those foods you can still eat even when you have the flu, etc.

I just got everything to make the potato soup that April posted today. Think I will add the onions that your recipe calls for though.

MMMM I love potato soup, but i like my veggies coarse chopped so they don't cook down too much. (I like to let my soups simmer for a while.)
