Cream of Sweet Potato Soup

4 sweet potatoes (about 1 pound each)     8 cups water     1/3 cup butter     1/2 cup tomato sauce     2 tablespoons half and half     2 teaspoons salt     1/8 teaspoon pepper     dash thyme     1 cup cashews (split in half)
  Preheat oven to 375F. Bake the sweet potatoes for 45 minutes or until  they are soft. Cool the potatoes until they can be handled. Peel away  the skin, then put the potatoes into a large bowl. Mash the potatoes  for 15−20 seconds, but you don't need to mash them until they are  entirely smooth.   Spoon the mashed sweet potato into a large saucepan over medium/high  heat, add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. When the soup  begins to boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 50−60 minutes. Cashews  should be soft. Serve piping hot.
