Potato Soup Weather?

For me it's anytime.  Salad and soup just seems to hit the spot.
So even though it is still September and triple digits here in Texas I can still eat a heapin' bowl of good 'ole soup, stew, or chili.

Today I am thinkin' Potato Soup! How Do You Make Potato Soup?

I don't really have a recipe.  And most of the time I just wing it.  And so today I thought I would see if I could get a little help. 

My first stop is always Pioneer Woman.  Is she not amazing? 
Here's what her steaming bowl of yummy soup looks like . . .

My little cast is a little different.  My method is a little different. 
But it turns out yummy just the same. 


My Method:
1. I dice my celery really small and cook in some chicken broth.  I really want the taste and flavor not the crunch.
2. My secret to adding onions to most dishes.  I grate my onion.  Then cook it in a little butter and bacon grease.   
3. My other secret.  So secret I didn't photo it. LOL.  Actually I forgot. I use half and half in my soup. 


 So do you have a great recipe?  Wanna share it?  Check out the  linky parties below.

Well if your like me and you don't have a real recipe click here to go Pioneer Woman's.  And well heck even if you do.  Just go on over there and visit.  You'll be smiling when you leave!
