That looks amazing, G!

My favorite comfort food is Chicken Paprikash. It’s an involved meal to make, but oh so good. My grandmother made it for us as kids. Miss those days.

'Comfort food', in the sense that it pleasantly reminds me of my younger days, would have to be meatloaf. And not just any meatloaf, but one made from my mother's recipe. In particular, a cold meatloaf sandwich with mayo, lettuce and tomato. It was far and away my favorite brown bag school lunch.

These days, I make one a few times a year, and it never disappoints.

Grew up in an Italian household with my family and my grandparents which wasn't uncommon back then. Easy answer is pasta and meatballs.
Every Sunday no exceptions for the first 18 years of my life before I moved away and I still went back for that mean when I could.

Ben and Jerry’s Cherries Garcia.

Nothing beats a cup of ice cold milk fat, flavored with tons of sugar and chocolate chunks.

Same here, Chris. Nothing like spending several hours with the family on a Sunday eating pasta. Tradition still lives on in my family on most Sundays.
