In a large stockpot over high heat, boil potatoes until tender. Drain and

saute' bacon until slightly browned. Remove bacon and set aside. Add onion

stir until smooth. Add beef broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low
and add potatoes and bacon. Pour in white wine. Add thyme, pepper, and
parsley . Then add half and half. Heat through and serve.

*My note: I used skim milk instead of half and half, and a little more
flour and don't feel I missed a thing but the extra calories.
