Are you looking for a supper idea?
Are you in need of some comfort food on a cold winters night?
Try this wonderful soup. It is a recipe I received from my sweet German friend when we lived in Germany for three years.
Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture when I made it yesterday, but the next time I do make it, I will be sure to edit this recipe and add it then.
Potato Soup
This recipe makes enough for about 2 people
Ingredients
3 c water
5 small potatoes (peeled and diced)
2 medium size carrots (peeled and diced)
1/2 tsp salt (or enough for your taste)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp parsley
3 beef frank hot dogs, cut into small pieces (any meat will work, especially ham, but I like it the way Heike made it with hotdogs)
1/2 cup all purpose flour (enough to thicken water into a gravy)
Directions
In a medium sauce pan boil your potatoes, carrots, and spices all together. When they are soft, add diced hotdogs (or meat of your choice). Once the hotdogs are cooked, thicken water into a gravy base with your all purpose flour.
When this is prepared as a meal, serve with grilled Panini sandwiches, chips, or salad.
Lastly, enjoy your comfort soup! It promises to not only warm your body, but it will warm your heart and soul as well.

I am a wife, mom, and daughter. I have served in the United States Army, gone to college, and received a Batchelor's Degree in Criminology. I married my husband when he was on active duty in the United States Army so I have the unique knowledge of what it is like to be on both sides of a Military uniform. I have been a wife for a lot longer than when I was in the Army.
While we were stationed in Germany, my daughter, who is 23 years old now was born and I chose to put my career on hold to be a mom and eventually a homeschool mom.
The past 15 years have been wrought with many struggles for various reasons, but it is as a result of those struggles that this blog has come about.
As the years passed and the struggle kept coming, I would say to God, "I'm not sure why we have to go through all of this, but if we have to God, then allow my story to serve as a means of encouragement to others so all this pain isn't for nothing."
Well, the years passed but the struggles never went away. I feel now is the time God wants me to begin sharing my story. It is my prayer as I share my heart that it will serve as a healing opportunity for you, my readers. Know you are not alone. There are hope and encouragement that waits.
