I am now so darn hungry for potato soup!!!! It is going to be too hot here 
tomorrow to use the wood stove so I will wait. One thing about mountain living 
in Oregon 90 degrees one day and 60 the next.

A winter or so ago, some of our Scottish Cavalier ladies were talking about 
the potato soup one of the ladies' grandmother used to make.  I have that 
recipe, too....
I will compare it to yours, Margaret...I have a feeling they are not 
dissimilar!!!
    The one I have, of course, is called "Nana Kerrigan's potato
soup" 
and all those who've tasted it love it...
         Of course, we then had to have other recipes for the things to have 
with it.................but the soup is great.
