Today it is cold and as everyone knows I love soup I am going to make creamy sweet potato recipe will follow........it says fall to me and it is a bright blue cold fall day. I want to cook stuff so I have it for the week incase I an zapped with motors running from the construction and not being able to get out of bed. It is quiet on Sunday at least until the leaf blowers start. There can't be too many more weeks of that.

Creamy Sweet Potato Soup

1 1/2 lbs sweet potatoes peeled and chopped
1/2 c chopped onion
1/2 c chopped celery
1 1/2 c water
1/2 tsp dried parsley
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp nutmeg
3 tbsp flour
2 c fat free milk

In a pot with the water cook sweet potatoes, celery, onion and spices until potatos are soft. Pour 1/2 of the mixture in a blender along with the flour. Blend until smooth. Pour bake into pot. Add milk and simmer and stir, it will get thick as it cooks. cook for about 5 minutes. If it is too thick for your liking add some more milk or water.
