Potato Corn Chowder

2 T. butter or margarine
1/4 c. flour
1 C. water
1 tsp (cube) chicken bouillon
2 1/2 C. milk
2-3 med. potatoes, chopped
1/2 C. onion, chopped
1/2 c. cooked bacon, chopped
1 c. frozen corn

Melt butter over low heat in medium saucepan (we like a large one though); stir in flour. Stirring constantly on medium heat, add water, bouillon (we actually use 2 tsp. bouillon), and milk. *salt and pepper to taste* Once all is stirred and mixed, add chopped potatoes and onion. Cook until potatoes are tender and soup is thick. Once potatoes are soft, add bacon and corn. Once corn is warm, serve and enjoy! Make sure you sample frequently to see if you need to add more salt and/or pepper. You can fry up the bacon, or use the pre-cooked stuff both work great.
