Re: Does anyone eat mush?
Well, no offense Margie, but I think MY Mother makes the best potato soup in the world!!!!  (Although, I'm going to try your recipe--my kids love cheese, so they will probably love your soup!)
Here's her recipe:
Mom’s Potato Soup
Serves 4
Ingredients:
4 Potatoes, washed, peeled & cubed
4 c. water
½ onion, chopped, sautéed in butter
½ stick butter
1 quart of half n half or cream
4 slices crisply fried bacon, crumbled
1 can corn, drained, or equal amt. of fresh or frozen
fresh parsley, washed, drained, coarsely chopped
Salt & pepper to taste (fine salt & coarse pepper)
Boil potatoes in water until tender. Drain off about 1 c. water. Add cream, onions, corn, butter, salt & pepper. Heat through over medium/low heat, thicken with cornstarch if necessary. Spoon into serving bowls and top with bacon and parsley. Serve with toasted bread or homemade croutons.
JaneEyre, this is one recipe I haven't managed (or even tried) to slim down...so I'm sure it has lots of fat and calories per serving, too. 
I will say--you have to use real butter, and real cream or half & half, or this recipe will not be nearly as good!!!
