Trying to Stay Warm

According to the weather man, there is lots more cold to come. Brrr.



I went to the grocery store the other day, which I hate. A few old ladies tried to push me around, but I wasn't having any of it. One of them even bumped my cart into an apple display and knocked some apples down! Geesh. Anyway, I realized that it was very old lady of me to carry these reusable bags from Target Optical, Triscuit, and the St. Lukes Surgery Center. They were probably threatened that I was acting 67.


All of that to say, I purchased all of the ingredients to make Pioneer Woman's tomato soup and some grilled cheese. Now, I don't really like tomato soup or grilled cheese, but something got me to thinking it sounded good. Well, it wasn't really very good. I didn't really follow the recipe perfectly...surprised? I didn't have enough heavy cream, so I just added some extra butter. Well, that didn't do much--the soup tasted 100% like sherry and 0% like tomatoes. The next day when I heated some more up, I added some milk and that helped quite a lot. Next year during my craving for tomato soup and grilled cheese, someone should remind me of this and tell me just to buy Campbell's.
