Top 5 Comfort Foods

1. Shepherds Pie: I know several ways of making it and it is an amazing each and every way!! Just the mixture of mashed potatoes, meat and veggies is delectable!! I could eat it most anyday!!

2. Soups & Stews: I am constantly making these semi homemade soups or stews in my crockpot and they always turn out delicious!! They are especially good on a rainy day when we are all stuck inside the house, they really seem to make everyone happy and full.

3. Chocolate: I am a Chocolate addict, I dont think theres a chocolate invented that I dont have a love affair with!! I love Dark Chocolate the best but also adore White Chocolate too!! I love expensive chocolates the best like Lindts, Cadburys, and Ghiradellis but I also am also addicted to Twix bars and dark chocolate reesee cups!! Also the only milk I really love is chocolate... Ice cream is always better with chocolate added to it and chocolate cake is the best!! I love a Klondike bar or a slice of german chocolate cake. I also adore fried oreo cookies so I guess I am sadly addicted to chocolate but thats okay by me!!

4. Breakfast foods: I can eat a whole pound of bacon by myself even tho I know its not good for me. I also love fried eggs which go with the bacon!! Breakfast is one of my fave meals which is why I often make breakfast for dinner so I have an excuse to make an extravagant breakfast!!

5. Kentucky Fried Chicken:I love any fried chicken for that matter but KFC obviously has the best there is!! I also love their buttermilk biscuits, corn on the cob, gravy and of course that delicious coleslaw. They bring you down south without ever having to leave the north!! Their food is amazing!!

comfort food...mmmm yum!

I might get wordy with this post, because I just love food.

1. Fresh blueberries with cream (heavy, not half and half) with white granulated sugar sprinkled (heavily) on top. :P Ten years ago when I was going through a major depressive episode my dad came into town to visit. When he saw I had lost some weight, he asked what I felt like eating no matter how crazy it sounded, and this is what first came to mind.

2. Bread pudding made with brandy soaked dried cherries and raisins with white, milk, and dark chocolate chunks. I've been visiting my sister in OK this week and had this dessert for the first time. It's the BOMB! Major comfort food.

3. Mc D's Filet-O-Fish, fries, and a Coke for when I'm feeling stressed out and in the mood for junk food that's still a meal...technically.

4. Abuelita's (name brand, btw, and not my grandma's) hot chocolate with french bread rolls. I'm not much of a dipper, but more of a bite and take a sip so the bread soaks up the hot chocolate in my mouth. Nice for a bedtime snack, or on a cold cloudy morning.

5. Breyer's vanilla bean ice-cream with grape nuts. Saved the weirdest for last. I love the malty-ness of the grape nuts, and that it gives substance to the ice-cream. But I do let the ice-cream melt just a bit, so the grape nuts can soften up some. Don't wanna break a tooth, if you know what I mean.

Comfort foods!

1. Colby-jack cheese.

2. Gigantic ice cream sundaes with Ben & Jerry's cookie dough ice cream, hot fudge and Reese's Pieces.

3. Twice-baked potatoes.

4. Hot fresh dinner rolls.

5. Pringles, especially ranch and honey mustard flavors.

If I had to come up with a comfort drink, it would be Barq's root beer, hands down. And while it isn't specifically a food as much as it is a restaurant, anything I get at Wendy's also counts as a comfort food.

Gay men, the reason I still like men ;)

In no particular order:

1. Macaroni and Cheese. Just the regular Kraft kind... all hot and cheezy. Yum!

2. Tator tots. By themselves, mixed with scrambled eggs, or accompanied by fish sticks. hehe Or really any form of potato...

3. Cereal. I could eat bowls of cereal every day.

4. Homemade brownies, cookies, etc. Delicious and so cozy!

5. Any of my mom's home-cooking! Chicken and broccoli crepes, beer meatballs and rice, chicken noodle casserole, beef stroganoff, etc. I love it all!

Top five comfort foods

1. I like thick oatmeal with a lot of brown sugar. I like it really sweet. It always seems to make me feel better when I'm not feeling well.

2. I eat popcorn all the time. It seems like it makes me feel better too. It doesn't fill me up real well, but I like to eat it anyway.

3. When I was in high school, I used to make rice and put cream of mushroom soup in it. I loved that stuff. It was really warm and filling. I haven't had it in such a long time, though. I can't eat cream soups without something like rice in it.

4. I love love love nachos and cheese. Ah it reminds me of being at the football game with my mates. Good memories!

5. It's not a food, but I do drink a lot of tea. It just makes everything better for me. Like the first two things, it seems to make me feel better when I'm not feeling well.

1) Cinnabon's cinnamon rolls: Food of the Gods, I swear.
2) Chocolate: I actually usually prefer candy, but when I'm sad, chocolate always tends to help.
3) Tim Horton's plain bagel with butter and toasted: For all the Canadians in this community, you must know what I'm talking about, and if you don't, go to Timmy's tomorrow. My sister and I could both live off of Timmy's bagels if necessary.

4) A&W Teen Burger and fries: Sooo not healthy, but Teen Burgers make me so happy- I'll practically inhale it when I have one
5) Ristorante Mozzarella pizza: Whenever I've had an especially rotten day, I'll stop off at the grocery store on my way back from campus just to grab one of these pizzas to heat up for dinner.

On the twelfth day of Christmas, kairon13 sent to me...
Twelve masks painting
Eleven poets writing
Ten cats a-drawing
Nine atcs bookcrossing
Eight rhinoceroses a-glamourbombing
Seven bubbles a-reading
Six gods a-freethinking
Five bo-o-o-ooks
Four wings
Three shiny things
Two tiny things
...and a knowledge in a classical mythology.
