    My favorite comfort food for the Holidays are snickerdoodles. It is not just the fact that they are tasty but what they remind me of. When I was younger, my mom and I always made those cookies together for the holidays. I remember the fun of eating the dough raw, the smell that filled the house, and the taste of the warm cookies just out of the oven. I hope to continue this tradition with my kids some day when they are older.

    I like venison chili, goulash or a creamy broccoli and cheese soup. They all work for me. Living in a colder climate we have a whole lot of soup.
