Comfort Foods

Comfort foods... hump I use to think and maybe then I was right that I really had none. Now as I  look back I realize I have three foods I fall back on depending on just how stress or upset I am. now mind you  must not fall back on them often as I have just found out I lost ten pounds but I digress... I have not put them in the order of which i go to for the worst times first.  No water Chai tea Latte from Starbucks,  Cookies  and milk. and Maple Walnut ice cream from Handels ice cream.

Now the fact that  Found my comfort food purly by accident may sound silly but it was. I  was at one of my high stress times when it seemed that everything was about to cave in and  I went to the store and got a Chai. Now i normally drink this on a regular basis so me getting one is nothing new but the first drink i took  I felt my body just let go of the stress. It was a combanation of the  warmth of the milk and  the smell of the spices and the taste as it went down.  I enjoyed that chai more than any other I have had and I tell you it has become my drink ofchoice for those  times when stress is pushig me of the edge.  and yes I know they use a mix and a syrup...

Cookies and milk of course I came to relize was my destressor from work and  some personal crap i am working thru. and Handles Ice cream well that for a time when I just need a release and to be taken back to my childhood where it was plentful. here in the south I have only found my maple walnut at Handles.


Man I could go for some cookies and milk right now.. yeah its that kind of day....
