Mema's Potato Soup

3 medium potatoes
1 medium onion
Milk (enough to make a thick soup)
1 TB butter
Salt and pepper to taste

Peel and cube onion and potatoes. Barely cover with water. Cook until tender. Start the onions first (while you are peeling and cutting up the potatoes) because the onions take longer to cook. When the potatoes can be pierced easily with a fork (about 7 minutes), remove from heat and pour off extra liquid. Add milk (enough to make a thick soup). Add salt and pepper to taste and 1 TB butter. Slowly bring to boil. Turn heat to low or medium low and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Stir often to avoid contents sticking to the bottom of the pan.

Serve with crackers or bread and ENJOY!
