It's what I call the food that you always seem to want when you're feeling a little down or maybe you're under the weather and this particular food is exactly what you need at the time.

Today mine is soup beans and cornbread. I'm missing my Mom today and I won't get a chance to get home any time soon. These are the things that she cooked when we were growing up.

Do you have comfort foods? If so, what are they and why?

Good morning Sweetie!

Why is this a comfort food for you? Or is it just your favorite type of food to eat?
 
Strangely, toffee. I know, I'm odd but when I feel stressed or down, the old toffee box comes out. It's been out today and yesterday.

coffee ice cream, Nutella, amaretto, pussy.

Pussy is a comfort food??
:eek:
I'll have to remember that little tidbit of info for the next time hubby is feeling down. Do you think that he'd buy it if I told him he'd feel better if he ate my pussy??

It's both. When I am depressed I crave it. I think the curry ect actually chemically makes me feel better emotionally. Of course I oreder it so hot some people can't even sit near the plate because the fumes make thier eyes water.

Do the toffees have any connectoin to your childhood maybe?
I'm so sorry that you've needed them lately.
:( :kiss:

There's a very large box of Thorntons original special toffee right here, tuck in! {{{hugs}}}

I am sorry to hear that you are feeling the need for toffee. As much as I baited you the other day I do like you. You're ok for a Limey.;)

Either it makes you feel better or you're so busy concentrating on your mouth burning that you forget all about what was bothering you in the first place.

Campbell's Tomato soup... Made with whole milk, not water... In a big coffee mug. Thanks for reminding me! It's a snow day, no work today! That's lunch...

Oh, I make mine with milk too and once in awhile I put a little bit of grated cheddar cheese on the top of it.

This thread is making me really hungry now!
