Baked, Boiled, Fried and...

Yesterday evening I took a trip to my local "big box store". I was only there for toilet paper. But I have recently figured out that the toilet paper is very strategically placed in the store. Do you know where they keep it? IN THE BACK OF THE STORE! That means that folks have to pass by EVERYTHING ELSE to get to it, and then pass by THE REST OF THE STUFF to get to the register. So going in for ONE thing and coming out with JUST THAT ONE THING is virtually IMPOSSIBLE.

They got me well before I got to the toilet paper. I was going up and down the meat aisle and right next to that are the yummy side dishes. Oh what a variety there is to choose from! So I looked at THIS, and I looked at THAT, and soon thereafter found myself pushing MASHED POTATOES around in my cart. MASHED POTATOES!!! I can't tell you the last time I even had mashed potatoes, but all of a sudden my mouth began to water at the thought of enjoying spoon after spoonful. And when I got home, I did just that. Heated those bad boys up and got MASHED POTATO WASTED!!!

NO, that's not something that I do often, and YES I know that mashed potatoes aren't "good for me". But I wanted them, and after the week I'd had...I NEEDED them.

Once they're gone, I'm sure that I'll be "over it" and won't have another spoonful of mashed potatoes for who knows how long. But for now...while they're here...I'm gonna enjoy them.

So how 'bout you...

Let the DIALOGUE begin: What is YOUR favorite "comfort food", and how often do you have it?

Talk to me!

Til next time...
