on a cold windy night in front of the fireplace.

Cook the potato in the boiling water until soft,
drain off and keep 1 pint of the potato water,
and rice the potato. Heat the milk
in a double boiler with the onion.
Cook the parsley in the fat, add the flour,
stir until well blended,
combine with the milk and potato,
stir until smooth, cook for 2 to 3 minutes,
and add the salt and pepper.
