Every really good fairy tale must have a villain. This one has two.
Once upon a time, 5 pound bags of potatoes were on sale for 69 cents. The grocery store sign whispered that any one customer could purchase up to 6 bags. So, I did. Why did I need SIX bags of potatoes? I don’t know. It appears I’m easy prey for suggestive advertising.
On another day, not too long afterward, a sign in Costco encouraged shoppers to stock up on Christmas ham. The hubby doesn’t even really like ham. I don’t even really like ham (much too much pressure for my weakened Holiday Will Power to refuse). But, that sign said it was a good idea. So I purchased a 328 pound ham.

But, fear not. A certain fair maiden wearing Ugg boots and a curly ponytail conquered them yesterday in her kitchen. She baked and chopped and stirred them up. She cooked and seasoned, and covered them in obscene amounts of whole milk then topped them with bacon and cheese and green onions.
Thus ended the reign of the Potato & Ham leftovers. And, thus began the noble and glorious reign of the White Potato Soup.
Ye End.
