The cravings begin.....

 
I have been wanting very specific foods lately. And I have to eat what sounds good or I get nauseous. Some have been weird cravings like my sudden need today for oysters, I like oysters but it is not something I ever think to order. It also can't be just any oysters, I want Oysters Rockefeller...I know kinda weird. The other night I had to have Market Street Clam Chowder! Lucky for me they sell it at their front counter in already prepared containers to go. The other thing I want all the time is orange juice. We never buy juice, we just never really do, maybe once a year? So I finally bought some and I have found though that when I feel nauseous I drink OJ and the world is right again!TA DA! I grilled up a portobello mushroom the other day and put it on a sandwich with lettuce, cheese, pepper-cot jelly & mayo yummmmm (my mouth is watering again just thinking about it). The other day I went to Costco in search of deli pickles and kalamata olives. I'm sorry I know this post is boring, you are a saint if you read this. I just wanted to write down these weird cravings I have been having. Did I also mention be bought chickens??? Well we bought six living chickens that are currently in our back yard, I will write more on that in my next post...

Girl... those are some dang weird cravings. I don't think I like any of those but the juice! HAHAH... I wonder what I will crave when I'm pregnant? Too funny. Can't wait to hear about the chickens... hahaha

Some of those cravings are rather interesting! It's great you wrote them down to remember this phase...who would have thought oysters?! My problem was that I had cravings...but usually everything I wanted would end up coming back up....so even when I craved OJ (which I did too!) - after being sick with it once, it was on the list never to have for the first 12-16 weeks. I pretty much ate what wouldn't be too horrible on the down or up again...with Madeleine I lived on Slurpees and Sour Patch Kids. I'm so thankful she came out with nothing missing...I did worry when my main diet consisted of what I could get at 7-Eleven! The memories of being sick are still vivid....it's good you feel like something to eat....even if they are a little on the unusual of the pregnancy cravings!

Market St. Grill Clam Chowder sounds really tempting right now...if we lived close I'd get a few bowls and come share some with you!!

Good luck keeping up with the cravings...and posting about them!

Those are some weird cravings girl! But I guess it's a good thing that we really only get these kinds of cravings when we're prego!!
