Childhood comfort food

Sounds like we grew up together!

We had ground beef or ground venison in mushroom soup or milk gravy, with a shot of Worcestershire sauce served over noodles or mashed potatoes, we called it BARF!

Grilled cheese and Campbell's tomato soup. The soup was made with milk when times were good and with water when we were broke or snowed in.

If my mother was making bread she would fry some dough in Crisco and we would sprinkle it with cinnamon sugar.

Another simple favorite on a cold winter day was goulash made with a quart of tomatoes, elbow macaroni and ground beef.

When we were sick we looked forward to eggnog and large pearl tapioca pudding.

I wonder what today's kids will remember as comfort food.
