Life's Comfort Foods

I thought I might lighten the discussion today. We all live very busy and time depraved lives these days. There are days where our schedules just do not alow for a good meal at home or we get home late and just do not feel like cooking, so what is your food of choice when things are limited due to time, schedules or just exhaustion?

One of my comfort foods are a couple of Peanut Butter ( Jiff or Skippy - Creamy ) and Jelly ( Welch's Grape Jelly ) sandwiches and a big glass of cold Milk. I have been eating these things as long as I can remember. Just ask my Mom, Paula or Andrew.

When I am really tired and do not feel like a PB & J, I go for a big bowl ( not a regular bowl ) but a big bowl of Wheaties. Maybe I still dream about being an Olympic or Sports Champion and being on the box one day. I still want to make a difference in people's lives, maybe it started as a kid - to be the guy that people look up to, respect and want to be like.

OK. let's get down to the real deal and cut through all the hype......we all like ice cream, you know you do, it might be you haven't enjoyed a good ice cream in awhile but think about it. When you were younger, did you get a treat every now and then of ice cream? It could have been the Ice Cream man that came around the neighborhood or going to the Ice Cream Parlor or Dairy Queen. We all should have a fond memory of ice cream.

I have found that - Blue Bunny Cookies and Cream really satisfies me at this stage in life. Just between you and me, it is usually after 8:30pm at night.

Life is short, enjoy it!

My fav is Blue Bell's White Chocolate Almond!! They don't distribute that around here! Going deeper.... What's your spiritual food of choice when things are "hurried"? Can we survive on the PB &J of the Word. Do we focus on the "sweetness" of the Psalms? or the "fiber" that proverbs offers? Lee
