Homemade Potato Soup

The weather has finally cooled off here.

It is a relief.  I didn’t find taking down Christmas decorations

in 80 degree temps very appealing, to say the least.

We spent New Year’s Eve at home with the grandloves.

My perfect kind of night.

I made them Buffalo Chicken Nachos (I will share later) –

and Potato Soup for me and The Hubbs.

This is one of our favorite soups, and I usually make this

in the crockpot but I got a late start on the day so it was

prepared on the stove top.

I am not sure what I love best about this recipe.

The fact that it is so creamy and delicious, or the fact that it is

so easy to prepare.

Like I said, it can easily be cooked in

a crockpot.  Just add the ingredients, set the temperature

and go!  I put together a little video for you to watch.

With some catchy, upbeat music I might add.
