Peaches, Pickles, Pastrami...ok, not pastrami...or peaches

So what I have noticed as of late is that I want to eat all the time. I want to eat every time there is not food entering into my mouth. I smell food when no food is around, I dream about food, I wake up and think about food. Well, I wake up with a strange hankering for strawberry pancakes. I have started a trend where I wake up, call sister or email sister and ask for strawberry pancakes. Then I send an email to Kate and ask her where my strawberry pancake delivery is. lol Until I either go to breakfast and get them, or I don't get them, and just desire them for about an hour and then eat something else.

While sitting at my desk and no food in site, almost everyone had gone for the day and I got a whif of Bob Evan's biscuits. You know the smell, very distinctive...but I wanted them. I talked about them through email. I had to STOP myself from pulling into Bob Evan's on the way home. I mean, it's like you become obsessed. Today I smelled Burger King's Original Chicken Sandwich. I could taste it in my mouth. It's just weird how you smell something and then you WANT it.

I decided to go grocery shopping and stock up on some things that I had run out of....pregnancy necessities. Pickles, Milk, Ice Cream Sandwiches, etc..you get the point. I had the MOST obscure cart in the store. lol

I grabbed foods I haven't eaten in years...or wouldn't normally eat. The sad thing...when you have a craving for something, it doesn't mean it's going to be there in an hour, or even 5 minutes. It changes so quickly. In a conversation with my friend I realized this to be extremely true. I don't usually like fig newtons...but they sounded fantastic...so I bought them. Honestly - when I think of them now, I want to hurl. They don't sound good. I can taste the gritty center right now - and I want to stop talking about them right now. I bought sour cream - for nacho cups - and the thought of eating sour cream...makes me want to vom. Why does this happen!? Someone tell me?! It makes me want to cry...which I have been doing a lot of lately...like right now, I seriously want to cry because I don't know why food makes me want to throw up! lol

Let's not get started on the emotions....All I have to do is see the preview for Time Traveler's Wife - and I lose it.

sad.

On the more exciting side of things....my peach is 13 weeks..."aaaannnd grooooowwwwing."
