The Cravings of a Pregnant Woman
Pickles & Ice Cream are among the most common cravings of pregnant women.... however, not for this preggo mama. Here are a few items on my "craving list" that I just cannot get enough of... and you know it's a true craving when you want it and you won't let anything stop you from getting it".
Peanut Butter Sandwiches
Chips & Salsa.... or should I say... "SALSA and a few chips"
Buffalo Chicken Pizza - Obviously... this baby likes it spicy!
Salt...I know, I know it's not the best for you...but PLEASE give me something SALTY
Coco Cola... there's a limit to the amount of caffeine a pregnant woman can have a day... but I'm not a coffee drinker so I like to splurge on a coke every couple days.
So...there it is. Now you no a little more about what I've been thinking about lately. :)
When and if you've ever been pregnant what do/did you crave?

The Dish....
Most of the time our greatest temptations are the things we know we're not supposed to do but desire so badly. Mark and I have just established a new budget for this year. That new budget includes a nice little "cap" on our expenses for eating out & entertainment. Since I can't actually "dish" all I want, I figured I'd go ahead & blog about all my favorite restaurants. At least give you a little list of my fav's and also give some props to some that are on the "wish list" to visit. Where are your favorite places to go out to eat?
