All Things Chill

2AM. Starving. Food? Jasmine rice. 1 can of Spam. 1 pkg of ready to eat lentils. I cook rice. I fry Spam. I heat lentils. I serve 2 bowls. I take one bite and smile. Back “home,” this was my mom’s no-nonsense, last-minute meal. I missed lentils (mungo beans to me). Hell, I even missed Spam. It’s funny, but to me…

Comfort = canned meat, beans and rice.

Food reminds you of the small things… especially if you don’t experience them anymore.

Seriously.
