I find myself craving certain meals after an exceptionally long/stressful shift. None of it is ever healthy!! Tonight was one of those nights. It got me thinking... what comfort food do you crave after a difficult shift?
I'll go first.
I LOVE anything with syrup-- pancakes (especially with chocolate chips!!), waffles, and french toast. That syrup melts away all the stress of the day! My other big-time comfort meal is bacon, eggs, and fried tomatoes. I'm not quite sure why it's all breakfast food...
mcdonald's fries (right out of the grease) ! and a mcd's diet coke ! i know, not so good for you but is definitely a reward for a hard shift !

i once stopped at a mcdonald's after a tough night shift and they made me a fresh filet o' fish sandwich and fries at 8 in the morning. it was soooooooo good and i was very grateful that they did that for me.
Well Canada sounds like a good place for a nice bacon sarnie SilverdragonBut coffee? Give me builder's tea so strong you can stand a spoon up in it any day. I'm from the North originally. Could you tell? :)
Lived most of my life in the North England (well Lincolnshire and Yorkshire) and give me coffee any day. More of a veggie these days as hubby is a veggie so not really bothered about bacon but do manage sausage butty now and again :)
