Hello and happy Friday the 13th. OoOoOoO!! I know I am happy because I'm going to be binge watching Netflix's Series of Unfortunate Events today :) Anyone else excited for that? I loved the movie and read the books and loved them, so I'm really excited for Netflix to have gotten their hands on the rights to produce a tv show. It already looks wonderfully dreadful and perfect! Anyways....

I have seriously been digging all soups with potato and corn lately. I don't know why really, but I just love the combination. It may be because of my old favorite dinner of ham steaks with mashed potatoes. Although I would usually fix peas with it, I do still love ham and potatoes together.

This soup is similar to a few others I have posted, but is just different enough for me to be absolutely positive that it needed to be posted!

What you need:
  • 3 Tbsp. butter
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 stalks celery, diced
