Thanks!BR - this is my new favorite thread.:clap_1:
I will definitely make this. But I'll have to go to Atlanta to get polenta; it's not sold here. If I asked for polenta at the Publix here, they'd think I was a terrorist or some other weirdo.Here's one of my favorite comfort foods:
Polenta Cake
You're right.BR, these are the moments (memories) that will help you get thru the hard times.
Yum! Good old Southern food. Don't forget the greens. I'd loves me a big bowl of collards with some corn bread to sop up the pot "likker" with!My idea of good comfort food, in no particular order. ;-) Big pot of pinto beans, served with buttermilk cornbread, fried taters with onions, fried okra, homemade fried corn, fried green tomatoes, my grandmas fried chicken, chicken fried steak and gravy, all the above served with fresh sliced home grown tomatoes, and a big hunk of vidallia onion.
Me, too. I used to call her every day. But now she can rarely carry on a conversation. I really miss talking to her every day.And, beach runner- I wish I had tape recorded my mom everytime she was lucid. She had Alzheimer's for almost 15 years, was silent for about 5 of those and I miss her voice the most.
That looks yummy! Beach Jacket had that Monday night at Blue Ridge Grill in Atlanta.Shrimp n Grits
Wow! I don't think I'd tackle dinner for 40. Impressive. Food sounds yummy! Hope she has a great Bat Mitzvah.I've been cooking and freezing lasagna (comfort food), meatballs (comfort food), Italian chicken liver pate, hummus, a goat cheese dip for crackers, a blue cheese dip for vegetables, and that home-made NYT Italian bread for Friday night. We'll probably just have sandwiches for Saturday night and salads because we have a reception at a hotel from 1-5 with lunch and dancing (Bat Mitzvah service is in the morning). Then quiche, bagels/cream cheese/lox, fruit salad, and coffee cake for brunch on Sunday.

A very good friend of our works there. The last time I was there I got the childs Salmon with sweet potato and squash casserole. It was very good. I'll have to ask her about the poor rating.Hey, Steele Mama, if you're ever in the mood for comfort food, don't go to Ted's in Peachtree City (an alternate place we were considering for today). They got a 66 (out of 100) on their food inspection.! YIKES!
