Dangit - that was gonna be my reply. I'll just add that the green slop looks like chewed cow cud after the second regurgitation.

i had chili last night for dinner and chicken and dumplings the night before that. so we will have leftovers for a couple of days atleast.

Chicken and dumplin's... mmm mmm good.
I fixed ham and beans, fried 'taters, and cornbread last night. Amazing.
I like chili, but only so much of it.
I need to fix a roast soon. What pisses me off is I thawed out roast meat a week ago, then I figured out I didn't have any potatos, and my carrots went bad. Now, I have 'taters, still no carrots, and my roast is bad. Dammit.

I make awesome chicken and dumplings. I also love broccoli and cheese soup in a bread bowl during the winter.

This reminds me that my Mom makes a mean beef stew, a great comfort food. I also love turkey dinner with all the fixin's, especially the stuffing, gravy, and cranberry sauce.

zomg chicken & dumplins. it's so weird that this is a topic today.

i haven't had chicken & dumplins in years, and yesterday i got this craving. my mom is going to make me some this week. wooooot.

incidentally, in my world chicken & dumplins are called "chumper dumpers". i screwed up lots of words when i was little. -_-

other comfort food... mashed potatoes. always mashed potatoes. mom's potato soup (best in the world), mom's chicken casserole (omggg i haven't had that in years, i need it now too), grilled cheese sandwiches, macaroni and cheese, stuffing (nomnomnom). green beans (and not the kind that have a lump of pork in them, gag).. glazed carrots. cornbread.. biscuits. toast..

i'm totally starving now. i wish today was thanksgiving.

What? It's just mashed potatoes with vegetables. We're kinda big on that here, all kinds of vegetables really. And it's considered winter food.

a. when you're PMSing

Chocolate.

b. to prevent yourself from killing someone else

Large bags of chips.

c. to prevent yourself from killing yourself

Usually I don't eat when I'm depressed.

d. when you're really sad

See above.

e. when you've fallen off your diet

Triple whopper.

f. when you've been away for a long time and go "home" and get to eat mom's cooking

My mother would probably put poison in my food, but when I eat at my dad's I always make him make brussel sprouts. Yum.

-Sauerkraut and spare ribs with potato rolls...oh mmmm!!!
-My Dad's apple pies
-New England Boiled Dinner - pot roast braised in stock with potatoes, carrots, celery, onions
-Littleneck clams steamed in white wine, chicken stock, garlic and parsley
-Apple cider doughnuts
-My Mom's corn souffle
-Peanut butter & honey sandwiches (on toasted bread)

Please don't be depressed. Be happy. Smile a bright smile.

I have to agree with Sherri Ann Cabot that SOUP is the best of all comfort foods.

You can eat a triple Whopper? Holy crap!

Tonight I think it's gonna be smoked sausage, green beans, and boiled potatos... you know, all in the same pot, slopped into a bowl, and accompanied with butter bread.... lots of butter bread.
