I hope you hang around with someone who knows CPR!!!

Personally, I gave up red meat about 3 years ago. Saw an infomercial on what it does to your colon. Don't miss it one bit.

My all-time favorite 'comfort' food is definately Mac-n-Cheese!

Funny I gave up Infomercials..

they are bad for my Wallet

Reminds me of Steve Goodman's Vegematic lyrics

VEGEMATIC
by Steve Goodman

Fell asleep last night with the T-V on. Oh, what a dream I had.
I dreamed I answered every single one of those late night mail order ads.
And four to six weeks later, much to my surprise,
The mailman came to my front door, and I couldn't believe my eyes
When he brought the Vegematic, and the Pocket Fisherman too,
Illuminated illustrated history of life,
And Boxcar Willie with a Ginzu knife,
A bamboo steamer, and a Garden Weasel too,
And a tie-dyed, dayglow souvenir shirt from Six Flags Over Burbank.

The doorbell rang all morning and into the afternoon.
I shook with fright as it rang all night to the light of the Master Card moon.
There was Parcel Post in the pantry, and UPS in the hall,
C O D's to the ceiling, and I just couldn't pay for it all.
I got the egg scrambler, with a Seal-a-Meal carrying case,
A set of presidential commemorative plates
So I could eat my eggs off the President's face,
A Minute Mender, and a needle that'll knit or crochet,
And an autographed photograph of Rin Tin Tin at Six Flags Over Burbank.

I remembered I was dreaming, so I gave a mighty cheer.
When I awoke, it was no joke, 'cause all that s*** was here.
So if you fall asleep with the TV on, let me tell you what to do:
Tear the telephone out of the wall unless you want it to happen to you.
You'll get the Vegematic, and the Pocket Fisherman too,
Illuminated illustrated history of life,
And Boxcar Willie with a Ginzu knife,
A bamboo steamer, and a smokeless ashtray too

And an all expenses paid weekend for three at Six Flags Over Burbank

It's supposed to be a rainy weekend, I think I'd better go get the fixins for this meal now that I've been thinking about it again!

Exactly Comfort foods is what mama gave you when you were sick.

You can tell when I am sick by looking in my fridge, if there's 7up in there...


I am sick.

TWINKIES

My chicken parmagianne...same as my mom's...with homemade sauce...yum!

Keets love it too! When they come to visit, I have to make it or they pitch a fit.

If we're talking Comfort food when sick, it's gotta be Ginger Ale, Homemade Chicken & Rice Soup....and either Tapioca or Rice Pudding..




Emotional Comfort Food?

Bread.

Especially that Pepperidge Farm Cinnamon Swirl Bread...

You could always tell when I had a bad day by the wrappers in the trash can...

And Mashed Taters w/garlic in them.....

Homemade Chicken Pot Pie....

Those work for me every time...

Rum

As they were beginning to do Mother's heart surgery, they made us leave the hospital to get something to eat...a good friend took me to Golden Corral---it was close to the hospital and I had
homemade mac and cheese
blackeyed peas
ham

Best lunch I never tasted.

this past summer it was okra
