Comfort food

Comfort food

I have to say the first thought that comes to mind is chocolate. But—not just any chocolate. It has to be See's Chocolate. My favorite are Carmel and Mocha crèmes. Every year since I was a child, my dad put a two-pound box under the Christmas tree on Christmas Eve. To this day I cannot pass Christmas without carrying on the tradition. I always think of him even though he has since passed.

Then there is the Mexican food and Friday nights at Jimenez Mexican Restaurant. Every Friday night my dad took us out for dinner. I grew up with the young girl that waited on us. (Her parents owned the restaurant) My mom always got what she wanted on that night, furniture, dishwasher, various other things. I must say I can't carry on that tradition but it is fun to think about. Jimenez has since gone out of business, but it is a fond memory.
These are my memories
