Hotplate: White Cream Sauce (Medium)

I can not tell you what a joy it is for me to be able to make my own cream sauce. I have tried many times, not sure why it worked this time.

Also, I appreciate cooking websites like The Spruce Eats, Simply Recipes and Cooking on a Bootstrap. The websites are user friendly, attractive and have almost everything I need to know when making "new" recipes.
