Grilled cheese and tomato soup. Today I'm making ravioli with pesto. I might put out our ham bone and soak some red beans to cook together tmrw in the crockpot. One of my favorite meals.

I had scalloped potatoes  and green bean casserole in the freezer, left over from the holidays.  My favorites!  Still have too many sweets.  I love them, but must eat in moderation.

Re: COMFORT FOODS WHEN STUCK IN SNOW DAYS?

I stock my house heavily before Thanksgiving, with absolutely no intentions of going to the grocery store until the end of January.   I do not even think about making runs to the grocery store before any storm.   Grocery stores here would have been crazy busy this week anyway since it was the first week of the month when many older retirees got their checks, and are out shopping.    

 

This area of southern WV sees a lot of bitter cold, snowy weather from Christmas thru January.   Also, flu and gastro start hitting pretty hard here after the holidays, so I do not leave the house until I absolutely have to.   

 

I currently have 100 lbs each of potatoes and onions in my garage, 10 lbs of bacon and 5 lbs of sausage in the fridge freezer, 4-18 ct cartons of eggs, 2 quarts of milk, 1 loaf of bread out, and 1 still in the freezer, and plenty of everything I need to fix a meal.   Today we had white chili and cornbread.  Tomorrow we will have beef chuck roast with carrots, potatoes and onions and cole slaw.   

 

We have no chips, ready made cookies, cake, or pie in the house.   We do have Mrs Prindables apples left to snack on.

WelI, I still have yet to get a snow day here in Los Angeles, but when I was a kid, my favorite snow day meal was a delicious golden grilled cheese sandwich and cream of tomato soup ... yum!
