So for today:

Our crop of tomatoes is dwindling; a friend brought some okra to Sherry at church.  Soooo I promised to make a fresh tomato soup. So yesterday I stopped work in the afternoon and started the soup.  Sherry cleaned and cut the Okra.

I wasn’t sure how long to cook the tomatoes, so I started looking thru our ‘MANY COOK BOOKS’.  We have some from many friends, several from churches ladies groups and even Sherry’s orig cook book she bought when we married. I LEARNED SOMETHING!!!  NOT ONE COOK BOOK HAD TOMATO SOUP IN IT!!!! Why is that?  Is it because tomato is a fruit not a veggie.  OR are we supposed to only buy Campbell’s Tomato soup??

Now for a fact on this internet you can get thousands of recipes for Tomato soup, but not in ours’ by gravy!

I did find in Sherry’s cook book from the church in Biloxi, Miss, a list of times to cook different foods, and it listed 10-15 minutes on med lo heat for tomatoes..  So I guessed at 20 minutes.

The tomato okra soup was very good I added some honey, chopped garlic and a dash of Worchester sauce. Sherry added onion.  It turned out great, we are a pretty good team!!!
