Subject: POTATO SOUP..see below for recipe

Chop up an onion or two (depending on how big they are) and several stalks of celery, including some leaves. Saute in margarine until soft in a big pot. In the meantime, peel as many potatoes as you like. I usually peel enough to cover the bottom of the pot in a fairly deep layer. Cut the potatoes in half or fourths, depending on how big they are. Cover with water and simmer until the potatoes are done. Take a potato masher and mash the potatoes lightly until they're reduced to bite-sized pieces. You'll get some chunks and a nice, thick broth. Add one or two cans of evaporated milk (again, depending on how big your pot is). Salt and pepper to taste. A nice touch is to add very crisp bacon, crumbled up, to the finished soup in the last few minutes of cooking.

Garlic croutons are good with this soup.
