Creamy Tomato Soup

Creamy tomato soup is one of those must-have items when you’re sick, and let me tell you Adam and I have been sick. Between the muscle aches, and the fever, the only thing we found ourselves wanting to eat was soup. So, before Adam passed along his sickness to me, I made him this homemade creamy tomato soup. Little did I know I would be consuming the leftovers because death fell upon me as well.

Luckily, we are both feeling good as new now.
