French Onion Soup with Bacon and Potatoes

Its been raining and super windy lately here in South Florida.  So I thought a little soup would make us feel a little better about our sunshine MIA lately.  My Aunt has THE BEST French onion soup recipe.  So I felt like making it up.  The problem was that the Beer Bread that I made the other went beyond being stale.  It was just funky.  So in the trash it went, and onto being creative I had to be.  I had a HUGE bag of potatoes that I bought on sale last week (total impulse) that I just have to start using up.  So I thought to myself, how about I use the potatoes in place of the croutons that I use for french onion soup.  I thought it could totally work, especially because my Hubby could seriously survive on potatoes.  But then, I remembered I have some nice thick cut bacon in the fridge that has been screaming at me to either use or freeze, so I decided to throw it into the mix and oh boy am I happy I did...
