Time of Comfort



Hello!

Webster has several definitions of the 
word "Comfort."

"To give strength and hope."  CHEER

"To ease the grief or trouble of."  
CONSOLE

"Consolation in time of trial or worry."  
SOLACE

"A satisfying or enjoyable experience."

For my post this evening we are going 
with this last one and talk about 
COMFORT FOOD.

I am sure that everyone is cooking as 
much or more than they did before life 
changed for all of us. I know I have been.

In times of upheaval, people tend to 
gravitate toward things that comfort 
them. ie: comfy sweater, soft blanket 
in a cozy chair,some bake and some 
cook. 

Tonight we had roast, potatoes, carrots 
and green beans. Tomorrow we will 
finish the Easter ham with Ham and 
Beans for Mr. Ken and I will have 
Ham and Cheesy potatoes because
am not a fan of  Ham and Beans. 
I would consider these to be
comforting.

Other foods I find "comfort" in:

Mac and Cheese
Spaghetti
Meatloaf
Mashed Potatoes
Soup
Chocolate
Probably a lot of other things that 
aren't good for us.  :) Ha!

What are your comfort foods??

Take care friends and be safe.

  6. I'm with Leslie, bread. Any and all kinds are my comfort food. Though I just had a bowl of vanilla pudding and that felt very comforted.
