It’s very strange being alone at the house. One lunch, I decided to make comfort food – what but KD?
I always add chili and mushroom soup to it (after it is prepared).
Sat down to eat my KD and thought it just didn’t taste good, not a delicious treat like Wayne and I used to enjoy. Ate a few spoons of it, tossed it in the garbage. Looking up, I saw the cheese packets, unopened, sitting on the counter:) Ahhhhh.
Our sons were not fond of KD so when the youngest spread his wings, Wayne and I “dined” on KD that night – we didn’t need to feel guilty feeding ourselves this treat.
Looking back I remember when our older son left home, I walked down the entry with my feet pushing down the backs of my runners – my sister was really perplexed as she remembered my telling the guys not to do this. Told her I could do it just once being no one could see me!

Ok Jean, I’m not judging your comfort food of chili with mushroom soup, but it certainly does sound “different”…..I say that I’m not judging, because my favorite comfort food is pinto beans with crumbled corn bread on top with mayonnaise stirred into it….. sounds and looks gross, but to me….. very good.

What is KD, might I ask?
I too have been known to drink out of the milk carton after the kids left the house and felt kind of guilty but it was a nice guilty.

KD??? Tell me about it. i might give it a try…
I know you’re not just writing about comfort food – you were looking for actual comfort. Your world must be mixed up and so confused right now. Nothing making sense. I am thinking about you my friend.
Kraft Dinner. Oh my kids loved it! And hubby and I eat it once in a while. I do consider it comfort food and totally understand you turning to humble KD in these times.
You made me smile – leaving the cheese packets on the counter. Oh Jean – it’s tough. The house must feel empty.
Hugs
Kraft dinner!
