Comfort food: When the Going Gets Tough



Job loss: Spaghetti and meatballs.
"You need a meal that's cheap but cheerful—a slight indulgence, but not too extravagant. And a big bowl of pasta will help you sleep so you won't be up all night fretting about money."

Fight with your best friend: Cupcakes.
"Baking for someone is a nice gesture, so give your friend her favorite flavor. It's really difficult to be angry when confronted with a cupcake."

Breakup: A hamburger.
"The first night, have a burger with the works: cheese, bacon, onions, and possibly French fries. But the next day, eat heathy food and go to the gym—looking better than you did during the relationship is just delicious."
