Comfort food

My husband has a couple favorite meals that he enjoys--comfort food if you will. He especially likes a chicken vegetable dish baked in the oven until bubbly and then topped with biscuits. Once the biscuits are baked, they are served on a plate and covered with the chicken gravy mix. Yesterday, I baked a couple steaks in the oven over several hours, added baby carrots and leftover baked potatoes. Along with an ear of corn, garlic bread, salad and fresh peaches, we had a delicious meal. He commented that the dinner was just like Grandma's and the carrots were perfect. Grandma always served homemade apple pie for dessert. No pie, but strawberry shortcake was available if wanted. A nice day yesterday. I needed butter and freezer bags and as long as I was at the store, I added to my wardrobe, a pair of whimsical black and white capris with a rouched shirt, summer loungers to sleep and relax in, and a pretty black and white shirt for work. There is something renewing in new clothes or a new hair cut. My daughter's friend stopped by and we had a nice visit while we waited for my daughter to return from the tire store. She had picked up a spike in her tire.
