Dear Friend, what are your comfort foods. Is it something sweet or spicy. Something hearty or bread. Is it bread? If so what kind, be specific.

I want to tell you about some of my comfort foods and why they are important to me

Raspberry Filled Donuts. You can get these really from anywhere. I have a few good local shops near me but typically I get a dozen of them from my Krispy Kreme. When I was in elementary school, my grandpa used to take me to the grocery store to do money orders. In that time I would always get a raspberry filled donut.

Burger King Chicken Fries. When I was little little, first grade and younger, the only thing on the military base where we lived was a Burger King. The only restaurant on base. The nearest McDonalds or other food place was about an hour drive (to my toddler mind). Therefore I ate quite a bit of Burger King. The specific order that I grew to love was chicken fries. Eventually they get discontinued and my mother was very sick of BK so we stopped going. When I got to an age where I had say in where we went for dinner when we ate out, I usually picked BK. Combo that with the ‘Satisfries’ recipe at BK. Yum

Taco Salad (The horrible abomination that my very white family eats but I still love) Picture this if you will, Doritos (Salsa Verde), Bush’s Baked Beans, Mexican cheese blend. I can see that many of you just winced and exited out of your browser. For that I am sorry. Regardless that was a staple meal at my house. I haven’t even told you the worst part. I eat it with a fork.

Autumn Porkchops. My mom has a really good recipe, perfected by my partner of a porkchop baked with an apple half on top. Add some baked beans to it and it’s what we had before starting school every year.

Bonus! Strawberry Dr. Pepper from one of those fancy coke machines. Nothing much to it. No ice, and it tastes like cough syrup to most people. C0mfort foods are weird Dear Friend.

So what are your comfort foods Dear Friend. Tell them to me, I’d like to get to know you better. You will be alright.
