Aloha Friday




In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that they take it easy and look forward to the weekend. After the stressful week I've had, I thought I would join my friend Kailani in this week's edition of Aloha Friday. I could use some relaxing!

I'll ask a question....something that doesn't require a lengthy answer in the comments below. Then you can go out and meet some new blogger friends and participate in Aloha Friday too.

My Question: What's your favorite comfort food during wintertime?

As for me, I love nothing more than making one of my mom's recipes - tuna patties. Super simple, easy, and inexpensive. I'll have to share the recipe with you someday. Mmmmm Good!

Now, it's your turn. What's yours?

I love soups, chowders, anything I can throw into the crock pot during those cold days/nights! Also a warm cup of cocoa and flavored coffee does the trick!

Hot chocolate :D

Cindy said...

Without a doubt it's soup, chili or stew, but if I had to pick just one it would be soup. There's so many different kinds to make. Just add meat, water, veggies, rice, barley or noodles. Mmmm, mmmm good!

Colette S said...

Hot chocolate.

Red beans and rice

Tea.

Chocolates :) (Mauna loa)

Jen said...

Soups - just about any Soup! I like super fattening ones, but try to stay away from those. I also drink alot of Starbucks in the winter. Does that count as comfort food?

Beth @ TheAngelForever said...

Love almost any soup and we do them a lot since they are inexpensive and most are healthy with lots of veggies.

Its funny about comfort foods. I'm comfortable with pretty-much anything that tastes good.

Enjoy your time to relax.
