Comfort Foods! :)

You know the feeling. You've had an awful day, possibly including traffic jams, failed exams, getting dumped or maybe fired, and that's not to mention the whole host of other things that can effectively ruin a day. You know the drill, you come home feeling awful, like you want to curl up in a ball and crawl right into bed before things get any worse than they already are.

But then, you get home, and surprise! There is your favorite food, just sitting invitingly on the countertop. Almost like a consolation prize. Sure, you didn't win the new Cadillac, but here's a delicious bowl of wonderful to cheer you up. You crawl into some comfy clothes, wrap yourself in a blanket, and eat up.

Suddenly, the world doesn't seem like such a terrible place after all. And how could it, while you're scarfing down your favorite food?

Like a delicious little superhero, it has swooped in to save the day! Because it was there for you to eat, and recharge your faith in humanity, the day can be salvaged! You carry on, a million times better then ten minutes ago.
So let's hear it for comfort food. Be it ketchup chips, chocolate cake, or good old Kraft dinner, it's always around to save the day, and that makes it worth celebrating. :)

  1. Come to think of it, I could really use some comfort food right about now... I almost lost NaNoWriMo thanks to stupid Windows being suddenly 'incompatible' with Firefox...
    Unfortunately I haven't got any Salt and Vinegar chips laying around. :-( I think the world owes me now.
