Bowl of Comfort

Winter cravings assuaged

By Meredith HarmonPublished 12 months ago 1 min read
NOM in four hours....

The outside world is crap,

But it’s nice inside.

Time to cook!

What’s in my fridge?

Hmm… carrots, potatoes,

Onions, are these shrooms still good?

Come here, crock pot.

Cabbage. Shred, chop, toss

In pot with lots of garlic!

Beans. Barley.

I take comfort

In a good bowl of soup.
