It's been so cold and damp this week that i got slightly obsessed with the idea of making onion soup. I've loved it for years, and it's not rocket science, but i'd never tried to make it. So this week i got all the ingredients that weren't already on hand rounded up, decided on a recipe to try (with only minor tinkering) - and then realized i didn't have any oven-safe bowls or crocks to put it in. Crestone to the rescue! I knew i could pop it into the oven without fear, and i love the way the melted cheese on the lip looks just like the drip glaze...
(Oh, and the soup? Not too shabby. I added a little thyme, used sherry in place of the cognac - and sloshed some extra in for good measure, and went for sliced cheeses on top for simplicity's sake.)

Does that ever look delicious - and it's perfect in the Crestone! Now I'm hungry . . . although at 100 degrees outside, soup probaby won't me on the menu. LOL!
True! I've been thinking lately how good it would taste, but unwilling to heat up the kitchen that much 'til it cools off a bit. (But come fall, i can assure you, it'll be back on the menu!)
