what to eat when you are down?

Oh, Chatterbot, I’m so sorry. Hang in there. InshaAllah things will fall into place soon. I tend to crave soft foods when I’m down. Like soft chocolate chip cookies or ice cream. You know what else is comfortingly soft and gooey? Pasta. Soft squishy pasta with cheese and tomato sauce. Now, i’m not a fan of spaghetti. Spaghetti is not comforting. It’s too long, too messy, to high-maintenance when it comes to eating. I prefer pasta dishes like baked ravioli or baked ziti…mmmmmm. And you know what else makes for good comfort food? Chinese food!. There’s nothing as comforting as waking up in the middle of the night and raiding your fridge for left-over chinese food.

Mayonnaise…well…it’s nice as a condiment. And it is good in sandwiches. And it condition your hair. But do ya really wanna snarf up some mayo straight from jar? Cuz dude, that’ll just clog up your arteries. And I understand you’re sad now…but comfort food is supposed to be comforting…it’s not supposed to jam up your arteries and kill you!

Oh and don’t overdo the comfort food though…it tends to come with a heavy price…known as fatty calories!
