You know that day when everything seems to have been working against you. That you swear the Cosmos must be laughing down at you while it wreaks havoc in your life. Every car in front of you is an idiot, every line you get in is the slowest, your bank account is way lower than you thought it was.
The store has every size available but yours, you can’t find your favorite socks and you are wearing the ones that keep bunching up at the toes driving you insane, that day. That is the kind of day I was having. I just wanted to go back to bed and pretend that it never happened.
Not even a do-over, just never have happened. Seeing as the day that this post goes live it will be Black Friday and I am in Retail I bet I will be having that kind of day again…… On days like this, you really need good old-fashioned comfort food!

After a bowl of this, you won’t even remember the color of that stupid car, what it was you were waiting in line for, you don’t even like that item that they don’t have your size in, if you had more money in your account you would just spend it, kick off the shoes and go barefoot it’s better that way anyway. So whip up a batch and serve it to the whole family and I guarantee you won’t have a grumpy grouse for 2 or 3 days!
