Okay, I really don't understand or wish to understand pregnancy cravings, but dang they can just come out of no where and take control. With Megan I craved nutritious, healthy foods like green beans, fruit, cottage cheese, etc. La-la-land, granola, Whole Foods type cravings. With this pregnancy, my cravings are absolutely disgusting - things I normally don't eat. Basically, I crave a serving of fat with a side of sodium. And for dessert, I'll take another serving of both. Don't even bring a vegetable around...that pushes me over the edge. Let's see...this baby is made up of McDonald's cheeseburgers and fries, potato chips, tater tots, crackers, cheese, chocolate milk, pizza, cereal, and now Frito pie! I've eaten Frito pie for like the past 8 meals. GROSS! But oh, so good in a sick sort of way.
But as if the nasty cravings aren't enough, the other people living in my house - okay, mainly Daddy - feel like they have free reign to eat the foods that are currently on the craving radar. It's a change to have junk food in the house, so they flock to it! But how is one mean, ugly, cranky, hungry pregnant woman supposed to make a Frito pie without Fritos? When I went to bed last night, the bag was about 1/4 of the way full. This morning, when I wanted Frito pie for breakfast? None! And the other night the potato chips were gone, too. UGH. But while I was gone today, Daddy quickly replaced the Fritos so I could have Frito pie again tonight. So romantic. And tonight he asked me if I was going to eat something he took out of the fridge. Am I that scary? Perhaps.

Frito pie for breakfast? Um, yum and yet, um ewww. But I'm with you! And the vegetables thing - UGH - I can't even look at them when I'm pregnant.
Oh my! Yick! Once, when pregnant with my second, I craved salt in the worst way. I would get italian dressing, and before I shook it I would squeeze out lots of the oil. Then I would shake and pour it all over a whole head of chopped up iceburg lettuce. Then I would wait until the vinager soaked in and made the lettuce all wilty and eat it as fast as I could. It totally grossed out my husband but I couldn't help myself. It was so good to me. YUCK. Makes me shiver just to think about it now.
Frito pie for breakfast... that is disgusting. = )
