Mina's Ham and Potato Chowder

"My mom liked to make this soup on a cold fall or winter day, and serve it with homemade bread. Although it's not a thick chowder, it is filling! Real comfort food. I am pretty sure this came from our local newspaper, and it was such a hit that it became a regular thing on our family's menu. My own kids love it too. I am hoping someday to hear a third generation of kids shouting, "Hurray! Ham and potato chowder!""
