First Post!

Hi!
I figured that while Steve and I are in the process of creating/editing/designing our family cookbook (2 years in the making thus far!), I would start a blog to keep everyone updated on our progress, let you try a few sample recipes, and give everyone a chance to share some more great recipes!
I also want this blog to help out the busy moms like me, on tight budgets and little time, who have to answer that dreaded daily question, "What's for dinner tonight?!?"
So, please feel free to comment, criticize, and share recipes of your own!

Here is a really inexpensive recipe for winter time. It doesn't look appealing when you are making it but turns out very yummy.
Potato Soup
Bring to a boil & cook till soft. Do not drain:
6 c. potatoes, peeled and cubed (about 4 large)
4 c. water
3 tsp. salt
2 bunches of green onions, cut into 3 inch pieces
Blend the following ingredients until very smooth:
1 c. water
3/4 c. blanched almonds
Add to above ingredients after the potatoes are cooked. Bring to a boil mixing all ingredients well. Use a potato masher to mash potatoes to desired consistency. Add 2 c. of fresh or frozen corn as an option. Serve in bread bowels.
