Cravings

People's favorite question to ask me is, "Do you crave anything?" Usually I say no. I mean, I'm always up for a spicy chicken sandwich from Wendys and some fries -- I don't need to be pregnant for that. And I've always been a candy snacker - when the candy is around. I can't blame that on pregnancy. But yesterday I had the strongest craving for KFC's mashed potatoes and gravy (I usually don't put gravy on my mashed potatoes too, so I knew this was the real deal -- a real pregnancy craving), KFC's coleslaw (I read in the beginning of all this that I can't eat coleslaw, although I'm not sure why and I think I need to research that a bit further) and chocolate chips cookies (while I do enjoy the chocolate chip cookie, I'm much rather have its cousin, the peanut butter cookie or a macaroon).

So I told my husband about my cravings before heading home after BARTing. He just nodded his head. I kept saying how I wanted those things. He kept nodding his head. Then I realized he wasn't going to budge. Usually I can say I want something and he'll get it for me pronto. But not last night. I whined a bit more, then he said maybe on Friday. I said that by Friday, I'll want something else. He said too bad.

Where I work, there are a bazillion places to get chocolate chips cookies, including Mrs. Fields, and I'm so tempted to take a tiny break to go stuff my face full of cookies, but I know I won't. As far as the mashed potatoes and coleslaw goes, I think I can wait for that, and I probably won't want it as much as the week progresses.

Until then:

I thought this was going to have a happy ending - but no. Your hubby is mean!

What's even more mean is that I really can't eat premade coleslaw. However, I can make my own. Yum!

I craved Burger Kings Hershey Pies like everyday.

I don't even know what a Burger King Hershey Pie is. I did get my chocolate chip cookie yesterday, though.
