Smoky Potato Soup with Ham in the Ninja Cooking System

                                  Potato Soup with Ham in the Ninja Cooking System

It was an ordinary afternoon pumping gas at the gas station on our way to my daughters art class. The cell phone rings and she answers it. It's the call that you don't expect to get but it's kinda in the back of your mind if you shop online. You know, it's a possibility but you figure it's not going to happen to you. It was our bank asking if we made purchases in town and in London, UK today? Someone in England was attempting to book travel arrangements at a travel agency. Thankfully our bank declined the transaction, twice.  So to the dirt bag who is trying to take without earning (stealing) I say "shame on you"! May karma drift your way sooner than later.

Ok, rant over. Cozy soup recipe to warm your heart & mine to follow:
