Quick list of recent pregnancy cravings

I thought it might be fun to keep a running list of my most recent pregnancy cravings and if they've been fulfilled. My mind has been focused on food lately and I'm thankful I'm able to eat more normally again (the first 12ish weeks were rough!). In no particular order:


  • Pickles - We ran out at home, must buy more (yes, I will admit to sipping a little pickle juice from the jar, yum!)
  • Ice cream - Not with the pickles, but I love me some chocolate ice cream & milkshakes
  • Sushi - I've abstained from the raw stuff since August, but I'm going to try my hardest to get some soon!
  • Five Guys burgers - I had my first Five Guys burger about a month ago and have been craving them like mad since. Paul indulged me today by meeting me there for lunch, score!
  • Chick-fil-a - since we're about a mile away from one at home, I've had this one often
  • Citrus - I am loving oranges & grapefruits. We get our Broughton Band fruit this weekend!!!
  • Turkey & Stuffing - Thank goodness Thanksgiving was last week, just in time!
  • Mexican - Particularly from our local, not so good for you, place.

Every week brings a new craving!

Wait! Did I mention we're expecting on this blog? I don't think I have! See, I'm am blog-a-holic and post to a few, so in my pregnancy induced amnesia, I hadn't thought to bring it up here. So if you hadn't caught on, I'm pregnant and we're excited to be bringing 'oldmarried baby' into the world at the end of April in 2009!
