2 cups Water
1/2 cup Carrots -- chopped

In a 3-quart saucepan, cook the bacon until crisp.
Remove bacon, and set aside; discard all but 2 tablespoons of drippings.
Saute onion and celery in drippings until tender. Add the next 8

cream, and heat through.

potatoes and bacon in a tempting creamy broth. |
