Creamy Potato Soup image

There's nothing like a good potato soup on a cool day. I've been making this one for years and it's always been a hit at soup and sandwich luncheons, for company or just for family. I hope you enjoy this simple, creamy soup.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper and it was much better.
