Iconic food and gustatory moments in history.
My Mom's Stroganoff. Honorable Mention in A Taste of Home Challenge.
Most people have a favorite comfort food they like to eat. It can be a sweet dessert, chocolate, mashed potatoes, just about anything from Thanksgiving dinner. Some dishes are cultural, something that reminds them of family and home. Others are just for the taste or mouth feel of the food item. I know when my husband is having an off day, he wants macaroni and cheese. A perennial favorite with kids and adults alike. You can never do wrong with the orange-yellow noodle-y goodness.

My Mom's Picadillo
One of the things I hate most about recipes online is the long story that comes before it. The entire history of where the ingredients for a butter cake come from, the author’s entire food-on-the-road blog, or everything that’s happened in the world since it was formed. A lot of advertisements floating around the sides or in between the text. Then follows the general ingredients, and more dialogue. A few photos. THEN you get the recipe measures and directions. If you want the recipe, skip right to the end below. I promise not to tattle on you.

Prism Jelly. Runner-Up in A Taste of Home Challenge.
I was born and raised in Utah and the only food more debatably Utahan than Funeral Potatoes is gelatin. (Fun facts: in 2001 Utah name the official state snack: Jell-o. Utahans eat more Jell-o per capita than any other state and are well known for their Green Jell-o salad featuring crushed pineapple.)

The Worst Valentine's Gifts Ever: A Comedy Special (According to Women). AI-Generated.
#1: Bath Bombs Oh, bath bombs. The glittery, fizzy promise of relaxation. But let me tell you something: if I wanted to sit in a tub full of chemicals that turn my skin neon blue or green, I’d go swimming in a glow-in-the-dark pool. Sure, they smell nice, but honestly? They’re like adult versions of Play-Doh. And let’s not forget the inevitable mess: glitter everywhere, clogged drains, and a bathroom that looks like a science experiment gone wrong.
