Macaroni and cheese with bacon and bread topping

 You don't need any reason for eating comfort food ^^. Because it make you happy, and you deserve it.
There are so many thing in life, and we can live with happiness or regret but for me I choose the first one. Eating is one of my favourite time of the day, haha (ok, I'm greedy), but when starting by imagine what do you want to eat, enjoy each moment of preparing, making and yes, eating, it make me so happy. 
Maybe it's not only about food but it's the way we feel. If you can't eat what you want, thinking about food will bring you pain, and I know that many people have that problem. Food is joy when you keep it in moderation, even I love to eat sweet, dessert, cheese, chocolate and etc., I don't eat them everyday but when I want to eat it I always go for the real one.
Like this Macaroni cheese, it's not for fainted-heart person, haha. With a load of cheese, and bacon, this one is so rich. I didn't tell you to eat it everyday, but only once a week is enough to make you happy for many days, I promise. ^^
