Inspired To Make My Favorite Soup...Tomato Bisque

Last Wednesday I stopped by my favorite little spot, Westegg Cafe,  to pick up my beloved caramel cake. While I was there, I couldn't help but ask what was the "Soup de Jour"? The answer? Tomato Bisque! My eyes got bigger than they already are. My heart sank and my stomach began dancing with anticipation.

Of course, I already knew what the cake tasted like. I was just waiting to taste the soup. The soup was well seasoned, creamy and had a little kick and the end of each spoonful. The soup was great and inspired me to make my own tomato bisque.

Turns out, it is easier than I thought. I made a pot tonight. I will be eating soup for lunch and dinner for the rest of the week.

It Does Not Come Natural

Libras, are the least domesticated of all the zodiac signs. Cancer being the most, maternal. I have to go the extra mile to make my laundry smell like my mothers. I have yet to master her perfect folding technique. She folds so well, you don't need to iron...ever.

I adore great food, great wine an great company. I just wish I could provide it without going to someone else's restaurant. I mean, I would like to entertain, more like learn to entertain like the pros. 

So, if you follow me on Pinterest, you will see my domestic aspirations. 2015 they will be put into practice.  Follow my Pinterest Board "Being Domestic"
