Though it's almost Spring, it still feels like winter over here and my body is still in the hibernation mode and all I can think about is food, food, and more food. However, it's not just any kind of food, I think of something warming, comforting and just something I could just eat the whole time and never get tired of it in ages. I love stews and braises in Winter but what I really crave are the foods that I grew up with and are close to my heart. These foods are the type that my Mom and my grandma would make for me. They bring me such great comfort and really warm my soul.

Chocolates used to be my comfort food but since i've got diabetes already, i've stopped myself from munching on those sweet desserts..

Chocolate is definitely my comfort food, followed by warm soup. I love a hot cup of tea on a cold day, it's very comforting, although I'm not sure if tea counts as a "food". My uncle's cooking is also comforting. But when it comes to something emotional, few things are as comforting as a good hunk of chocolate.
