Today I made home made mac and cheese. Mom's recipe;) Now I can't give you the recipe, it's a family secret, but what I can do is tell you that this wonderful, yummy, hot, soothing dish made my day so much better. The feeling of warmth and the memories that came back just made me smile. I know we're due for a big storm later in the week and so it's got me wondering. What is your comfort food? What do you turn to in order to get that warm fuzzy feeling?

Comfort Food
Comfort food is different for everyone. Mr. Dan loves peanut butter toast and a big glass of milk as comfort. I agree but usually add raspberry jam to my toast. Some people like soups, other's like mom's mac and cheese - really I think it depends on the person, where they are from and how they were raised. But I think one thing we can agree on is that everyone has some type of comfort food, something that makes them feel warm and fuzzy, something they'll eat on a bad day, if they're sick or something that reminds them of home. It's a good feeling to have that food. It reminds me of home, of being a kid, of all the comforting things I remember.

My mom...
My mom is wonderful. I can't say enough good things about her. She's one of my best friends, she's kind and giving and talented and funny. I could go on. Anyways, mom knew I was having a rough day and so she sent me this. I love it! The red is my favorite line;)
Thanks for the cute e-mail mom!
Words for Women to Live By
1. Aspire to be Barbie - the bitch has everything.
2. If the shoe fits - buy them in every color.
3. Take life with a pinch of salt.. A wedge of lime, and a shot of tequila.
4. In need of a support group? - Cocktail hour with the girls!
5. Go on the 30 day diet. (I'm on it and so far I've lost 15 days).
6. When life gets you down - just put on your big girl panties and deal with it.
7. Let your greatest fear be that there is no PMS and this is just your personality.
8. I know I'm in my own little world, but it's ok. They know me here.
9. Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself.
10. Don't get your knickers in a knot; it solves nothing and makes you walk funny..
11. When life gives you lemons - buy some Coronas.
12. Forget about the perfect man - he's living in San Fran with his boyfriend.
13. Keep your chin up, only the first 40 years of parenthood are the hardest.
14. If it has tires or testicles it's gonna give you trouble.
15. By the time a women realizes her mother was right, she has a daughter who thinks she's wrong.
'Good friends are like stars.........You don't always see them, but you know they are always there'
'Remember yesterday, dream about tomorrow, but live for today'.
