Potato Soup: Saute onions, carrots and celery in olive oil. Then add water and diced potatoes and salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables are done, and then add in butter and half and half (I have used regular milk or heavy cream also).

Since this post contains a tablescape, food and *pink*, I'm linking to Tablescape Thursday at Between Naps on the Porch, Foodie Friday at Designs By Gollum and Pink Saturday at How Sweet the Sound. Thanks to all three of these ladies who graciously host these events each week!
