Does anyone have this recipe that they can email me or put a link on here?

I had a party this weekend, lots of leftover potatoes (we did baked potato bar) and my friend suggested potato soup.

Well my cousin started selling PC and I loaned her all my cookbooks along with a few other things a few months ago and she won't return them. She says she is going to mail them, I keep telling her to take them to my mom's house (she is three hours away but lives close to my mom). Looks like I will have to go get them myself when I go visit next month.

I really appreciate any help finding this recipe, I looked all over the internet and no one has it posted anywhere. This will teach me to loan my stuff out.
