Potato Soup and Veggie Pot Pie

     On Tuesday (April.1/13) we made veggie pot pie. We used mixed veggies, soyasauce and cornstarch, veggie broth, potatoes, garlic, and onions. We made the pie crust, then wroked on the filling. we cooked the indregiants in a saucepan and after the potatoes were tender and the crust was in the tin, we poured the filling into the crust. We cooked it for 10 minutes. It tasted really good. I never had pie much as a kid and never really liked it either, so this was a really good pie. My only problem was we cook have let the sauce thicken a little more.
     On Thursday (April.3/13) we made my family's potato soup.
     1. Dice 1 cup of onions and celery. Cook in a pot until tender.
     2. Peel and cube the potatoes (pick your favorite potatoes). Fill the pot 3/4 the way up with potatoes.
     3. Pour enough chicken stock to cover the potatoes. Boil until the potatoes are soft.
     4. Drain chicken stock into a bowl and put the potatoes back into the pot. Pour cream (pink carton, says whipping cream) into the pot until it's 3/4 the way up the potatoes.
     5.Add chicken stock and fresh dill (preferably, not a problem to use dried dill). Stir to mix the dill and make sure the potatoes are soft.
     6. Eat.
     We made the soup as explained. I liked it but we usually use fresh dill and we only had dried so it didn't have a very strong dill taste.
