I wish I could save you a hunk.

My childhood comfort foods are:

What we used to call Creamettes. That was cooked macaroni heated with milk and butter and salt and pepper. Best served with RC Cola or Pepsi and Hostess Suzie Q's.

What we called Good Stuff. That was macaroni with hamburger and tomatoes and onion and bell pepper.

When I got off the school bus on Friday sometimes she'd have creamed asparagus over toast.

And the last highlight was rhubarb custard pie. I try to make that now but it is not the same. What gets me is I NEVER thought to write down the recipe although I had a million chances to do so.

I'm glad you wrote. I was just getting ready to turn off the computer for night. Now I have these pleasant thoughts to take with me.
