Sweet Potato Soup

Well, my faithful blog readers, I've returned to the blogosphere in (hopefully) full force.  I've been traveling a ton and that's had a huge impact on my cooking.  Let's just say that my meals have been average at best but I'm looking forward to an uneventful October to get back on track.

I work in downtown Washington, DC and, every Friday, my building hosts a fantastic farmer's market with tons of seasonal produce.  I picked up five sweet potatoes and wanted to make a soup instead of the more traditional mash or casserole.  Plus, I just bought a Cuisinart immersion blender and what better way to try it out than to make a creamy soup?
