NOTHING LIKE SOUP AND A HAPPY BIRTHDAY

December 17th is my first born, Bill's birthday. Happy Birthday Bill and your favorite oatmeal cake will be waiting for you. He already got his gifts from us.
On a cold day, there is nothing like homemade soup. The other day, I made potato soup.
I make my Mom's receipe and it is so easy to make.


Potato Soup:

Peel and dice as many potatoes as you want, dice an onion, add salt and cover with water and boil.
When the potatoes are soft, drain the water off.
Cover the potatoes with milk and then make a flour and water thickener and turn the fire on as you add the thickener. Add about two tablespoons of butter and if desired, one or two cut up slices of bread. Add salt and pepper to taste and there you have it, ready to eat.
