This soup is very delicious on a cold wintery evening with your favorite crackers.  My husband and I have enjoyed this receipt or similar for over 50 years.

20  ounces frozen chopped broccoli

2 cans cream of mushroom soup (undiluted)

1 medium to large onion, chopped

2 carrots, shredded

4 cups milk

4 Tablespoons butter

½ teaspoon tarragon

Dash of black pepper or to taste

Cook broccoli according to package directions and drain well.  Sauté onion and carrots in butter in large saucepan until tender.  Add all ingredients together in soup pot.  Cook over low heat until thoroughly heated, stirring often to keep from sticking.  Serve with crackers and a grilled chicken breast as side order.  “Enjoy!”

“Miss Patsy,” is the eldest of four children, all born in a country house built before 1900. She was taught to cook at an early age by her mother, Miss Mildred Ross.  It was and still is a sign of respect in certain pockets of Kershaw county to refer to locals by their name with Miss or Mr. preceding the first name. Simple home cooking was the rule of the day, and nothing was thrown away.  A cook book was hardly followed and recipes were shared using terms like “use a pinch of this, pinch of that,” and “add to taste.”  Miss Patsy is pretty darn good cook—so Professor Ron married her 41 years ago.
