Lately, I have been highly invested in extra toasty Cheese-Its and pomegranates. But, for actual comfort…chicken and noodles, beef stew, always tacos.
Oh! Extra Toasty Cheese-Its are the bomb!!!
I always love mashed potatoes. My husband makes the best. I joke that I married him for his mashed potatoes, but it’s at least partly true
I love people car soup. It’s red potatoes, peas, and baby carrots. You make a simple roux, add in milk, minced garlic, garlic and onion powder, salt and pepper to taste. At the very end, I add a generous handful of Italian blend cheese. It’s the best.
PS- I call it people car soup because my mom abbreviated potatoes carrots and peas that way on her grocery list. The name stuck with our family
I also love thick creamy soups and stews for comfort food! And right now I’m craving tuna noodle casserole ;p Japanese curry is always a comfort too!
So, over the weekend I have decided on the SUBJECT of my craft for this swap, but am still waffling on the medium. Two good choices. Hmmm…
Ack! Hope you are starting to feel better!
Comfort food! I love food! Mashed potatoes and gravy is way up there. Clam chowder. I love tea and cocoa, also. And a good peanut butter and banana sandwich always reminds me of my childhood.
@gozer thanks for the reminder! I haven’t been on the site for several days! I didn’t even realize how long it has been!
It’s fun to hear everyone’s! I have different things depending on the type comfort.
Cold/cozy: thick soups or stews with potatoes and carrots.
Hot/irritable: cold watermelon.
Stressed: specific kinds of chocolate and/or nuts; barbeque.
Nostaligia: spritz cookies.
Wine? Does that count as a comfort food? Though, honestly, there’s not one food I always like, it varies depending on my mood!
I have made no progress - I still like my idea, but my choice of materials and a tiny bit of the execution is lacking for me, so I might need to start over.
I’m actually packaged and ready to send. I was lucky to have time and inspiration on my side!
I just found the ummm… medium?… I wanted for yours. I’m hoping to start it after dinner tonight!
I worked on mine all afternoon and it’s a total bust! I’m gearing up for round two with fingers crossed.
I started work on mine today!
Awe. That sucks. We have all been there. Just take it as experience and dust yourself off. I am sending positive creative vibes your way. You’ve got it this time!
Awww, bummer… I’m still narrowing down my options but I think I might be about there.
I worked on my craft for about five hours today and made a ton of progress!
New check-in question! I like to keep the conversation rolling.
If you had to chose one season to live in year round, what season would that be?
Spring!
Oooh, depends on where I’m living! In the PNW, I’d definitely choose summer, but in Japan it would have to be spring or fall. XD
Fall!!!
Here in AZ it would have to be every season EXCEPT summer. I guess that doesn’t really answer the question… ummmm… fall!
