Fresh Cherry Tomato and Sweet Pepper Soup

By á-77268

I have such a pile of tomatoes everyday from my garden I have a hard time keeping up with the harvest so enough was enough, time for some soup! While I was making this soup I was actually short a few so out to the garden I went to harvest another cup or so of my ruby little fellas. You can’t get any fresher than that! I also use the green and Cubanelle sweet peppers and basil from my garden.

I started cooking a little late as I am refinishing my bedroom furniture with chalk paint and lets face it, time flies when your focused on getting something done. I have one more day of sanding and waxing then the pieces can go back and I can get our bedroom back in order. Although refinishing with chalk paint isn’t a terrible job it isn’t quite as easy as I thought it would be but the results are lovely and it is an economical way to give your furniture a facelift. Thanks Lori from Pure – Petals, Paint & Simply Quaint of downtown Burlington. You were a great help!
