It's a fairly wintry, snowy, windy and cold day outside today which got me thinking about comfort foods and what I wanted for lunch. I'm going with my all-time favorite tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches.

What's your favorite comfort food?

m'mm. all of those sound really good, but i'm going to have to nominate a heaping spoon full of peanut butter. just one. fill it up good, spend the next 15 minutes licking it off the spoon, and enjoy the strange looks lol.

When wifey is tired, I build an omelet souffle for dinner. Meat, three types of cheese, onions, hot sauce, slice of toasted home-made bread. Takes a half-hour of concentration to make, bu worth it every time. Glass of white wine after...

The omelet -meat sounds great....

... A glass of wine (or a bottle) and a movie sounds superb as well, especially since it's been cold and rainy here as of late

:biggrin:

Have you ever dipped a grilled cheese sandwich into a bowl of tomato soup? It's the bomb!

A close second for me would be open-faced sandwich hot roast beef with gravy.

Pumpkin pie sounds good. :smile:

I'm not really a cook but I try and I'm working on it and I'm trying different things. In the depths of winter last year I tried my hand at homemade butter tarts. I was born in Canada (they had enough sense to export me at an early age) and during visits to relatives I was exposed to butter tarts. Some Canadians take their butter tarts very seriously. What makes a good butter tart? (http://archives.cbc.ca/lifestyle/food/topics/1371-8373/)

The same bakery that my grandmother bought butter tarts at many years ago in Niagara On The Lake, Ontario is still in business and I made the mistake of stopping by on a Sunday last year and they were closed! I won't make that mistake this year.

I don't know if I'll try making them again. They turned out pretty good but man oh man that took a lot of effort. Easier just to drive from Michigan into Canada. lol But comfort food, yeah man, that's some sugary buttery comfort food.

Cooking ain't that hard! You are on the 'net ain't ya? Well, cooking is just reading, not much more. Follow the recipe, whether it is in a book or on the net, and success is yours. (Just don't get egg yolks in your keyboard is all.) Anything is possible once you get the proper ingredients; my spice rack has 45 different spices and mixtures on it, and I'm not afraid to use them.

By the way, you young single guys should pay attention: the women REALLY like a guy who can cook! Don't ask me how I know...

My favorite things to eat when I come home from a day of snowboarding, all worn out and cold, is either clam chowder with golden crackers or black eyed peas and corn bread. :smile:

After working about 72 hrs, I like to save Sunday morning for pigging on 3 to 4 frozen biscuits hot out of the oven, with about a 1/2 pot of coffee. :drool:
