Tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich is great comfort food for me. I love to dip the sandwich in the soup. Must be one of those retro things, aye, Cookie!
Salty, I'm tickled for you on getting rid of your debt. Congratulations!

I also like cheese on toast with my soup. I thought it was just a "me" thing.
