comfort foods

Another volunteer project I take part in is with my church delivering food when someone is ill or has suffered a loss.
I found this article about comfort food which I thought was good and could be helpful for this project as well as for anyone.
COMFORT - a condition or feeling of pleasurable ease, well-being and contentment.
Yogurt with our without fruit gives one a taste of sweetness plus you are adding minerals and vitamins.
Fruit smoothie
Chicken noodle soup-the great stand by. Make your own or look for brands with low sodium.
Angel food cat. Must be the lightness and you can eat a piece without guilt.
Oatmeal is the best choice for a hot breakfast. It is packed with complex carbs and easy to make.
Vegetable juice gives one a needed kick and is great for on the go.
Crock pot creations takes any combination of foods and turns them into a great meal.

What a great challenge for this week. I love to visit the donate sites. I have my varietes being the breast cancer and the animal sites. However, I did find a few of the links did not seem to work. I will play around to seeing how I can at least visit them.
I also do some volunteer work. I find this type of visit to be rewarding to me. Still they are very time consuming and I can do only so much with the limited amount of time.
I agree that we should all keep trying to accomplish this kind of goals.

Thought that it is very appropriate at this time of year with the holidays coming that we are going into some thought provoking challenges.
I had already started in this direction by trying to take on some volunteer type activities with my church beside the library related ones.
Getting rid of the me attitude is a challenge unto itself. I am constantly trying to get this message to my children when dealing with their children. Of course, I feel that they are giving much to much with to their little ones.
So here here !! for us trying to getting awareness out.
