Back in the ol’ figure out what I want to-do days.

Wait. I’m still figuring that out. Shoot.

Okay, back in the ol’ 45 seconds ago of still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up, I thought being a buyer would be totally fetch. You know for Nordstroms, Saks, Bloomingdales, or Neiman Marcus. For some reason, that job was deemed super cool when you are seventeen. Buying couture clothing, jet-setting to Paris, and the most important, a discount!

But after dreaming for a few minutes of said lifestyle, I thought, what about being a buyer for Sky Mall? Could you imagine the crazy s$*t you would have to pick out? Like a dragon for your front yard? A mathematical expressions clock? Or my personal favorite, a knight suit?!

Even though being a buyer for SkyMall is a little far fetched, these bourbon tomato soup shooters with grilled cheese rims are quite the opposite. This recipe is a version from a recently new favorite cookbook I received from my Aunt Joan called The Culinary Center of Kansas City Best Recipes. She is part time sous chef at the Culinary Center and has mad cooking skills. I like to think I have some of her culinary DNA running through me.

Anyway, this tomato soup uses fire roasted canned tomatoes (GASP!) as the base, but it actually works especially in the winter when tomatoes look like they got slapped around at the grocery store. Add a little cream, half/half, onion, garlic, and the piece de resistance, bourbon!

Mix everything together and you have a hearty, luxurious soup ready in 30 minutes.

Now, about that knight suit….
