Potatoes and bread where the two hardest things for me to give up when I became diabetic. Occasionally I take an "off the diet" day and allow myself that one day to eat my comfort foods, lol.
I do hope things are better for you now. I understand the pain your experiences sending your son fishing. I went through a period when my son was young and we had gotten away from his father. I had to go shoplifting at least once a month to make sure he did not go hungry part of the month.
Keep your chin up! I am adding this to the Sotall Directory and will post again from the Sotall account when it is finished.
They are certainly comfort foods!! Things are amazingly better! living the way that we do now, brings us closer to our food source. It reminds me that people can be so kind! Its amazing that we live through, often keeping it hidden.
Thank you for the directory post! That is a great resource!!
