Comfort Food

I love winter. For some reason, when it is cold outside I want to eat certain foods, comfort foods. All of my comfort foods are things that I usually only eat when it’s cold outside. The only warm weather comfort food I can think of is ice cream and that doesn’t really count because it’s really my year round comfort food, especially if it’s Bluebell ice cream! Yesterday I was freezing and wanted a big cup of hot chocolate I went to the cupboard and looked at my mug selection.  It was disappointing to say the least.  I wanted a big mug and then I remembered the hot chocolate cup my Texas grandkids made me for Christmas a year ago.  I keep it on the bottom shelf in the bottom cupboard.  (That is not quite as crazy as it sounds…it won’t fall out and break during an earthquake).  I love this cup and made a great cup of hot chocolate.  So now back to my comfort foods; hot chocolate and toast, oatmeal, Cadbury’s dairy milk chocolate bars, Campbells tomato soup with grilled cheese sandwiches, and tamales.  MMM……..
