I am a big fan of comfort foods, especially when they are done "right", and I love bar food. When they come together, it can be magic. (And I just heard a monotone version of Queen in my head, awesome.)
When I last saw Lux, he reminded me of how much I love Deviled Eggs, because, for me at least, they were a food that reminded me of holidays at my Nana's house. Creamy, spicy and always running out. They are a great food memory.
This afternoon, I met up with a friend for a late lunch, couple of beers at Brown's Brewing Company, and because I had, once again, forgotten to eat, so I looked at the appetizer menu and saw...
Deviled Eggs.
I had never noticed them on the menu before and that was probably because I was not looking.
Pairing them with Beer Pretzels and their wonderfully hoppy IPA made for an excellent light meal and it brought back a bunch of good memories.
This later came up when Elizabeth asked her readers what their favorite comfort foods were and I had to put it out there...
Deviled Eggs.
What are yours?
For comfort food one of my favorite things would be baked mac & cheese with broccoli and lots of crunchy breadcrumbs on top. Yum.
ReplyDeleteI love Mac & Cheese! Thanks, Heather!
ReplyDeleteIt's A Kind of Magic
ReplyDelete@JT Exactly...

It's a grand song - or maybe because I sing it so well? Or not.
ReplyDelete@JT My brother was listening to it on Saturday and it got stuck in my head, but not Freddie's version...just yours.
ReplyDeleteApologies? Or you just love my version? I know, it's intoxicating. And now it is stuck in my head. Drat.
ReplyDeleteI do love your version, even if it sounds like you are doing a it for an episode of "The Facts of Life" when cousin Jerri comes to visit.
ReplyDeleteShould I apologize to you as well?
Thanks for the laugh...even if it were at my expense :)
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't at your expense. I mean, I was the one referencing a thirty year old episode of a really bad sitcom...
ReplyDeleteBut...not as bad as the one where Natalie lost her virginity to Snake...
