There is a fine frost over the adjacent field. Mist shrouds the farmhouse at the end of our garden. It is properly cold outside.
This seems to have driven us to comfort eating, apart from Miss A, who will reliably eat approximately a tablespoon of grated cheese at any given meal. I'm not stressed - she'll eat when she's hungry.
My ultimate comfort food is a throwback to my university days - cheap, nourishing and cheerful. I heat up a tin of black beans, drain and mix with cooked rice, coriander leaves and chopped avocado and tomatoes and I've got a little pot of remembered sunshine. C, on the other hand favours cheese on toast. I have baked three loaves of bread in the last two days. Am considering buying some in as my kneading muscles are getting sore.
What are your comfort foods? What memories do they bring to mind?
