Homemade Tomato Soup

A friend of mine and I traveled to the local TJ, decided to make Tomato Soup, and promptly started throwing things into our baskets.  The result was....so delicious it will be talked of for a lifetime, and made over and over again in all of my households.  Here is the recipe:
16oz fresh diced tomatoes
1/8 cup butter
1/4 fresh diced onion
1/2 yellow pepper
generous 1/2 cup of chicken broth
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/8 tsp baking soda
salt and pepper
taragon
sea salt
basil
thyme
all simmered over medium heat for 30 minutes.
In a smaller saucepan, near the end of the thirty minutes, 1 cup of heavy whipping cream is heated up.
Both pans are turned off, the cream is added to the larger pan, stirred together, and immediately served garnished with fresh ground pepper and cilantro. 
the french bread was brushed with olive oil, peppered and salted, and broiled on low for 5 minutes.
