I can’t really say that I want to be indoors today – 75 degrees F, 39% RH and winds SSW@8 mph. But I did get the grill ready to do a Wine and Pesto Marinated Steak tonight. If I had some fresh tomatoes, I would make this soup, which really looks good. I will make this before I alter it, but I will probably add some garlic to the soup – very small amount.
