Comfort Food

In life, we all have our comfort zones. It is especially true when we retreat to our “favorite” foods. These are foods we might have grown up with, foods we have reached for in times of stress or celebration.


Our comfort food can range from a bag of M&M's, a peanut butter and banana sandwich with sweet pickles, rice krispie squares, a tenderloin steak with mushrooms. The definition of what foods comfort us is ours and ours alone.

While food can be a comfort zone when we need that escape back to “normalcy,” we also need the comfort of a cocoon, whether it's a place, friends or family.

Starting working on your cocoon before you need it.
