Currently, big bowls full of chopped fresh heirloom tomatoes tossed with garlic, mung bean noodles, fresh basil, fresh oregano, dulse flakes, and fresh garden onions.....eaten while curled up with a heating pad, the jazzy vegetarian cooking show, and a favorite blankie.

The fresh tomatoes, spinach, romaine, toasted sliced almonds, mandarin oranges, sweet pepper trio( yellow, orange, red) with raspberry walnut vinaigrette- salad, Old reruns of Daniel Boone, Star Trek TV, Swampfox, Thumbelina, or sound of Music; in my bed, under- you said it- toasty blankets w electric heating pad and a cold coke!
 
Carrots, golden delicious apples, cheese pizza preferably homemade, still in search of the best chocolate chip cookie recipe.

Music fluctuates: I can listen to Linkin Park, Evanescence, ska or Motown when I’m happy or sad.
 
Fresh locally grown vine-ripened fruits are my current favorite comfort foods....so tasty and so hydrating.

I think part of the comfort comes from knowing we can grow/find so many of our own and not have to rely on the stores, etc. for every single thing.

That's pretty significant for my brain, as I feel I've always had to rely on others and outside sources for everydamnthing my entire life. A little taste of organic knowledge and freedom seems to be a great therapeutic side dish in my world.

Finding the "wild" edible things that grow without human intervention is even more special to me. Free (other than the investment of time and energy) and there for the taking, all day everyday while they're in season.

Comfort hobbies: gardening/foraging/making hula hoops/creating crafty stuff/random conversation with strangers/cooking/thrift and consignment treasure hunting to avoid paying full price for stuff we need

Comfort songs....changes with the moods and the energy flow of the day, so it's hard to say
 
I do more organic- prefer wild caught seafood, farm raised meat, milk thats gone straight from the cow to a glass bottle(so good), fresh eggs from chickens who roam the earth, and home grown non- gmo corn and tomatoes. Fresh processed pork, chicken, and turkey are amazing- a flavor so much richer than you get from the preprocessed meat in the counter.

In the winter, I make comfort foods and freeze them. It’s nice having something that says home that only needs heating.

I draw, love art,write poetry, play my music and instrument with others, sing( I just got my voice back recently), collect coins and stamps. I love to travel- almost best of all- so freeing and so safe.
