My Go-To Comfort Foods

Daily writing prompt

What’s your go-to comfort food?

Comfort food is important on tough days. Here I will answer this question by the three meals I have daily.

Breakfast – I love oatmeal during the week. On weekends I enjoy cooking pancakes/waffles. Also, a cinnamon roll can be good.

Lunch – I am a kid when it comes to lunch where I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with corn chips. I also enjoy tuna fish and Reuben sandwiches when I need something more substantial.

Dinner – A loaded baked potato with pulled pork is good. Sesame chicken is something I enjoy anytime but especially on tough days. I also like a big plate of spaghetti. If it has meatballs then it is even better.

When days are tough I enjoy a snack of an oatmeal raisin cookie and a soda.

A Short Political Note

July 18, 2024 Tony Burgess 3 Comments

By Monday, I think we will see that President Biden will step aside to allow someone to take the torch to run for president. It is my hope that Kamala Harris will be the chosen one to do it and her Vice-President will be someone who is also ready to lead. If I am wrong I am OK with that. It is being realistic and pragmatic to act now. Loyalty to the country should come ahead of loyalty to a party or person. Too much is at stake.

Tonight is the 250th episode of All Elite Wrestling (AEW) flagship show “Dynamite”. This is my favorite wrestling show alongside their other shows “Rampage” and “Collision” which air on Friday and Saturday nights. Professional wrestling is my favorite sport for many reasons I will share in another post. Congratulations to Tony Khan and the entire AEW team for great pro wrestling action each week!

Thought Of The Day 07142024

What happened in Pennsylvania to former president Trump is unfortunate. Gun violence is a vile illness in this country and it cannot be ignored. That being said, for too long we have given guns a pass. Even Trump said people should get over it.

Gun ownership is a right in the USA but with rights come responsibilities and restrictions. People who have been the victims of gun violence deserve better.

I am not going to give Trump or Republicans a break. Too many children have lost their lives to guns. Too many women have been the victims of firearms that shouldn’t have been in the hands of the perpetrators. Something should be done but it won’t because of the sick dependence on the influence and money from the NRA and other organizations.

Gun violence is a moral issue that should have been addressed a very long time ago. Maybe now it will be looked at however I am not holding my breath.
