Comfort Food....

So, this past week has been busy, per the usual. For some reason, it seemed to hit me harder this week than usual. To make up for this fact, I made some comfort food on various nights. One such night, I even took a picture.

Coming home from work at a reasonable hour (I skipped the gym, so I got home around 6:30) means I make food. Not wanting something too elaborate, and wanting something salty and full of comfort-food goodness, I decided on a tempeh burger (no, I didn't make it, I bought them from the co-op and they are AMAZING), a salad w/corn and black bean salsa w/gazpacho dressing and potato "chips" with plenty of seasoning. Since I hadn't planned ahead, I didn't have a bun to put the burger on (and after a stressful day, it is not 5 seconds within entering the house that I have put on pjs and have resigned to not leave again for the rest of the day) so I just toasted some whole wheat bread. Actually, I think I may like burgers better on bread than buns.

When I ate this, I did not forget that some of my students had been lazy and/or obnoxious that day. I also did not forget that I had to give up some of my paycheck for bills after eating. However, for the time it took to eat this, I was mesmerized by the greasy goodness. 

Not much tops that.
