Whatcha eatin'? (5.12.17)

natleilynn

It's almost 9am EST, which means it's time to start talking food. What is the baby(ies) forcing you to eat this week?

natleilynn

S'mores poptarts for breakfast for me. Now I have to spend a few hours debating on what I want for lunch. Oh, and picking out the type of sushi I want for dinner tonight. 

Fridays are tough, guyz. 

ChocolateIsLife

Fixing to scramble eggs with zucchini and a fat cup of coffee! Now I want chocolate cake though.

You can't *not* like this. I mean, your screenname forces you to.

Tired + hungry =

@natleilynn  I'm all about the poptarts these days too!  Strawberry mostly.

I've been eating like shit this week. I haven't been grocery shopping in too long and I'm out of the things I normally have for breakfast but I can't just not eat or my stomach will digest itself. So I've been having fast food breakfast all week.

Lunch will be leftovers.

Dinner - no idea because DH is gone again.

All I've been craving lately is cucumber. And I generally don't care for cucumber when I'm not pregnant. Oh and I've eaten at least half an ice cream cake by myself since Sunday. 

natleilynn

Trying to create my sushi roll for tonight.

Inside: Tempura shrimp. Cream cheese. Spicy Mayo. Avocado. Cucumber.

Seaweed wrapper (I hate soy paper). Brown rice.

Outer: Filet mignon. Lump Crabmeat. More spicy mayo draped on top.

Too much?

It comes to $26.50 so yeah, probably too much.

@JessDG did you know that strawberry pop tarts are healthy? They are! Strawberries are a fruit, which is obviously good for you. The frosting contains dairy, which gives you (and baby!) strong healthy bones. Oh, and then the pop tart itself has some really great grain for fiber.

Kudos to us for making such adult, responsible decisions for our bodies!

I *may* have eaten an entire small pizza by myself for dinner last night. 

Breakfast will be a breakfast shake so I get my banana in to prevent the awful calf cramps I get in pregnancy. When really I just want to go get a buttery greasy biscuit from CFA

For the first time in three pregnancies I realized I was craving pepperoni pizza.I came to this weeks ago and FINALLY had three glorious pieces last night! I don't regret that final piece either.

natleilynn

Well, y'all have me googling pizza places for lunch today, so thanks for that.

JessDG

@natleilynn  I basically told DH the exact same thing yesterday when he was telling me I ate too many pop tarts!  I'm glad at least some of us are all on the same page. 

purplestarz

That greasy pizza looks amazing.

Last night I ate strawberries directly dipped into the Nutella jar while sitting on the couch watching tv. No regrets.

i have to take DHs car to get washed this morning and the car wash detail place is right next to chick fil a. So obviously that's what's for breakfast.

sjohns908

@natleilynn you're incredibly welcome for solving your daily lunch dilemma and for doing it early in the morning

natleilynn

@sjohns908 except now I have to wait another hour and 19 minutes before it's even remotely socially acceptable to order.

I don't know how some of these kids take a lunch break at 2pm.

sjohns908

Pssssh pizza is acceptable at any time of day. Its just more a matter of waiting for the places to open 

I used to take lunch breaks as late in my shift as possible. Not because I wasn't hungry but because it made it easier to get through the day. Go to lunch at 2:30, be back at 3, get off work at 4, perfect

This morning it was a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese and OJ. That was a quick little snack so I didn't get nauseous. Now I'm eating scrambled eggs and cheese and ketchup. Don't hate on my ketchup eating skills. Takes a speshul kinda of person to admit to eating it with cheesey eggs. 

sjohns908

@canonmom413 oh barf. No. Nope.

OliveOyl2014

I can barely eat ketchup with a burger and fries. I don't get how some people eat it with other things. My sister mixes it with mashed potatoes. Yuck. 

natleilynn

@canonmom413 DD, is that you? I know you eat ketchup on everything.....

ChocolateIsLife

This counts as one cup right?

natleilynn

@ChocolateIsLife I mean, it's not even full so....not even one full cup...

Don't worry, y'all. I'm on call today for all your food and drink related needs. Anyone else?

Brambles23

Unfortunately chocolate doesn't sit very well with me since I've become pregnant. My friend's FIL works for Wrigley, and he scored a few bags of Starburst jellybeans and I've been noshing on those this week.

Sweet corn is in season, so DH has been grilling that up and we season it with lime and salt-delicious!  Cherries are also in season-I've eaten few quarts this week.  

Breakfast today will consist of a leftover blueberry waffle with PB&J, and whatever else I can eat while driving to work this morning.  

OliveOyl2014

@Brambles23 I'm jealous! None of our grocery stores have gotten any cherries in and I'm craving them soooo bad! 

ChocolateIsLife

@natleilynn it was full when I first poured it.  I usually drink less but I need to get shit done today. We leave for vacation next week and I refuse to leave town with a trashed house.

Brambles23

@ChocolateIsLife I mean, it is in a cup.  Solidarity sister.

@Brambles23 by the way I have your same bed cover! It's currently in the huge laundry mountain in the living room.

Poptarta are definitely a fruit. Especially the cherry kind which has been my preference lately. 

DH and I are going to a graduation party tonight that is serving fajitas. Yum! I said I'd bring a dessert but haven't decided what yet...

sjohns908

@Brambles23 yeeeees corn and cherries! I bought some corn the other day and that is probably going to be all I eat for dinner. Super healthy  and I got a target coupon in the mail yesterday for 25% off cherries. You bet I'm making my way to the promise land today to get me some!

Brambles23

@ChocolateIsLife nice!  I think most of our bedding is from IKEA.  

canonmom413

@Brambles23 @sjohns908 cherries are life! Not sure they're in season in my area yet though!! Haven't seen them, so jelly.

I didn't even think to check Target! I hope mine has them!

Just totally mixed up my lunch game and ordered Olive Garden. Portobello ravioli and stuffed mushrooms. Just now realized I got two mushroom related items. 

beezeee

@ChocolateIsLife @Brambles23 this is my "one cup," so I think y'all are good...

sjohns908

@natleilynn ooooooh OG! I've wanted that for lunch the past two days but am holding out for Sunday dinner when I have DH go pick some up for us

natleilynn

@sjohns908 Pasta just sounds so good. And sushi tonight and MIL picked a place that doesn't have pasta for dinner tomorrow. I'm making lasagna on Sunday but...that's a long time from now...

@Brambles23  & @ChocolateIsLife I have the same duvet cover too! You ladies have good taste
