Meal No. 1209: Ultimate Cream of Tomato Soup & Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

A week ago as I drove from Winston-Salem to Virginia Beach (on a stretch of I-85 with a speed limit of 70 mph):



That was then. This is now. Did anyone notice how blustery cold it has turned as this Arctic blast has barreled in to remind us winter's got some life left in it? This is not your "it was over 70 degrees!" kind of February weekend.

So tonight, soup was called for, and I reached for a favorite that I could make without getting blasted away having to run to the grocery store in the power-outtage-causing gusts of the late afternoon. This is one of the easy and satisfying favorites among Roediger House meals in the soup category: ultimate cream of tomato soup, along with grilled cheese panini sandwiches.
