[Sca-cooks] Peanut Butter Soup

[Kathleen Madsen]

I just made a batch for lunch, it's cooking day and I
mixed it up while the cookies were going in and out of
the oven.

Delish!  I added a splash of Sriracha hot sauce (we
call it rooster sauce) and only had *chunky* PB. 
Tastes good.  I might run it through the blender after
it cools to smooth the texture out.

With a happy tummy,

I think I may have one around here somewhere. Just
checked my favorite 
Virginia cookbook, "Virginia Hospitality" from the
Women's League of 
Hampton Roads, VA.  I've not tried this particular
recipe, but know 
that 
every recipe I've made from this book is
excellent...so.....

2 ribs celery,chopped
1/4 cup butter
1 small onion, chopped
2 T flour
2 C. chicken broth
1 C. milk
1 C. light cream

paprika

Brown celery and onions in butter.  Add flour and
chicken broth, and 
bring to a boil.  Add milk and cream.  Strain.  Add
