Grilled cheese and tomato soup...just like Grandma Ruth's


We had grilled cheese and tomato soup for dinner the other night. Hayden loved it. He dipped his sandwich in the soup and said MMMMmmmm.

It made me think of when I was a little girl and would go visit my Grandma Ruth. She always had a plate of cheese and crackers for me (b/c that was all I would probably eat at her house since I was so picky). Eventually that branched into grilled cheese sandwiches. But I do not know how she ever got me to eat tomato soup. I was way too picky to eat that. In fact I never tried new foods probably until I went to college. Hopefully Hayden won't be as picky as me. I wish Hayden could have met Grandma Ruth but he is lucky to have one Great Granmda here (Grandma Erfort) and he also has a great grandfather in West Virginia (but he hasn't met him yet)

The grilled cheese story also made me think of how I tricked my niece bailey into trying tomato soup. She had refused until i told her it was spaghetti soup. :)
