Dinner Last Night: Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese Croutons

Nothing better to beat a rainy day than a steaming bowl of tomato soup and grilled cheese, am I right?  This was my inaugural try at homemade tomato soup.  Thus, I turned to the Barefoot Contessa herself for tomato soup with grilled cheese croutons.  Her recipe calls for gruyere cheese, but who keeps that on hand on a regular basis?  Sharp cheddar substituted just fine!  Putting this recipe in my back pocket for another rainy day.
