Renard's Cheddar Soup

Last year my son went out for lunch and he brought home
a ham and potato soup from Simply Soup. He said it was
very good so I made them alot for him my own recipes.
Today I found a recipe from Wisconsin Woman that I made
Renard's Cheddar Soup and it was delicious. Hope you enjoy
my soup recipe.
I hope you don't mind my recipes on my blog but I promise to
put jewelry pictures tonite or tomorrow.
