…or so the French say. I went searching for the right (or, should I say, “write”) saying that perfectly describes all the French sweets that have just arrived. I found not one that encapsulated all the wonderful treats. (If you know of a good food saying, send it along!) Some are old favorites — but there are some new ones, too. So without further ado... or is it adieu? ...

Recipes:
I long for comfort food. Who doesn’t? After all, comfort food is... comforting. For those seeking a little of the same during the cold and dreary days and nights ahead, here are some of my favorites.
Mac-n-Cheese Straight out of Marian Burros’ cookbook, “Cooking for Comfort” (XXx, 2003) My personal perennial favorite.
Shepherd's Pie Tim's first choice for his Birthday dinner - which is in January - so two reasons for seeking comfort.
Beef Stroganoff One of my mom's standards. Perfect with Pappardelle pasta.
Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes My favorite style of mashed potatoes.
Wild Mushroom Risotto An Italian classic that gives me comfort to make... and eat.
