Potato Soup, Since 1972

I RECEIVED THIS VEGETARIAN COOKBOOK EARTH, WATER, FIRE, AIR: COOKBOOK FOR THE NEW AGE by BARBARA FRIEDLANDER AS A GIFT IN 1972. I PULLED IT OUT LAST NIGHT TO MAKE THE BEST POTATO SOUP - A FAMILY FAVORITE FOR 37 YEARS. (EEEK . . . I'M REALLY DATING MYSELF!) THE BOOK IS FULL OF HOMEY, SIMPLE RECIPES, AND AT THE TOP OF EACH RIGHT-HAND PAGE THERE IS A RECOMMENDATION FOR MUSIC, OR A BOOK. A FEW OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS: ALL AND EVERYTHING BY G.I. GURDJIEFF, KNOTS BY R.D. LAING, AND BEETHOVEN'S NINTH SYMPHONY.
