Recipe Wednesday: Tortellini Soup

Tim and I just had this for dinner & you would love it! It's a quick soup to make and perfect for busy nights when you get home late. I was late tonight because of my spa appointment. My life is so hard!

Now it's time to post-up in the corner of our Ikea couch & enjoy some prime time TV with Timmy. He's cuddling with a bottle of Yuengling Black & Tan right now. I think I'm a way better cuddler, but whatever.
