Whatcha eating? 5.22.17

C'mon ladies!  Tell us what you're eating and/or craving this week!

All the watermelon. I used to laugh when grocery stores would advertise those little watermelons as "personal watermelons." I get it now.

Brambles23

We have a ton of leftover carnitas in the fridge.  I've been eating carnitas egg scrambles with pepper jack cheese melted on top with a lot of spicy salsa.  I've been craving super hot/spicy foods lately.  

I also want sushi badly.  I'll have to convince DH that we'll need to go out sometime this week to get it.  Although it's not so much convincing since he also loves sushi.  

@purplestarz IKR?!  I housed a "personal" watermelon in one day last week.  It counts towards water intake, right?

I got a free Banana bread loaf from the Starbucks inside the new Harris Teeter yesterday. I saved it, and ate it right before bed. 

This morning, I've got coffee and I'm thinking avocado toast with a salmonella oozing egg on top.

Started the morning with a chocolate poptart topped with peanut butter!

Hummus and fried pita chips from a local take-out.  For "second breakfast" upon my arrival at work.

We are leaving Saturday for two weeks, so we are just trying to eat what we have in the house that could go bad lol. I basically made up a casserole for dinner last night, but it turned out pretty good.

 @aprilsarahjune being pregnant has really made me relate to Hobbits lol. We do have a whole thing of hummus in the fridge that needs to get eaten before we leave. 


@Brambles23 That sounds sooo good. I've been craving Mexican food, we went to a local authenic taco place Sunday and I'm already ready to go back. I don't have any carnitas, but I really want to make scrambled eggs with salsa now. I'm so exicted to eat at my in-law's Mexican restaurant when we go to visit next week. I'm really hoping MIL will cook for us one night too haha.

@purplestarz I would love some watermelon, but when I pregnant it gives me heartburn for some reason lol. It did with DD and I tried again a few weeks ago (it was terrible)

 @canonmom413  That salmonella oozing egg sounds delicious! I miss a runny egg haha. I haven't been brave enough though. Mainly because we have this trip planned and it would be my luck that I'd get food poisoning right before we have to leave.

Ate a bagel with cream cheese this morning. I have not dug into my leftover ice cream yet (that's willpower right there). The past few days all I want to do is eat. I can't wait to eat again.

I get so hungry this time of day! @dumbledoredies I've been craving a bagel for the last two days. I may have to get one at some point today!

dumbledoredies

@ariz17 DO IT! It was so delicious! What's your favorite kind of bagel? I had a plain Kroger bagel but my favorite is a Panera asiago cheese bagel. I used to eat Einstein cheese bagels but once had one that had a long hair baked into it and ever since I've never been able to go back.

Brambles23

With all this bagel talk now I want a cinnamon crunch bagel from Panera with all the cream cheese.  

ariz17

@dumbledoredies  I love plain bagels! I also love the Panera asiago cheese bagels and everything bagels! That experience at Einstein's sounds horrific! I also love the southwestern bagel sandwich from Brugger's bagels. Soo good!

@Brambles23 I think I'm going to have to go to Panera for lunch and get a bagel too. 

curlyq423

@purplestarz YES TO ALL THE WATERMELON!!! I've been buying them every week and can't get enough. My husband had to do the grocery shopping Sunday because I was working and he even remembered to buy one. 

He also bought some unhealthy crap (delicious) food because he had our son and a man cold when he went shopping. Therefore, I'm having chicken tenders and French fries for lunch today. They are frozen store bought ones, but I can't wait. 

monstera13

We made salmon, shrimp, creamy garlic pasta, and roasted asparagus for dinner last night. My leftovers are sitting in the work fridge tempting me right now. I want to eat so bad, but it's only 11 am and I have to last until 5!!

Brambles23

Breakfast today...Carnita and pepper jack cheese scramble with lots of spicy salsa.  Sorry if huge-posting from mobile.

Hubs put a batch of spicy jerky in the dehydrator and it finished up today....so good!  

We're also going out for sushi tonight.  Win!!!

ariz17

I decided to go with a veggie foot long from subway for lunch. I am about to eat the other six inches..oh boy.. "Eating for two," right? lol

natleilynn

@ariz17 I mean, a veggie sub is basically eating air. So you could eat 10 of them.

Brambles23

I had a chocolate cupcake after breakfast.  Dessert doesn't always have to coincide with dinner, right? 

ariz17

@natleilynn hahaha eating air!!!

Right? It's because it's not Listeria Wednesday, yet, right? You're just holding out for tomorrow's fuel fest.

I mean....again, the tooting thing. Most veggies have fiber, which makes ya toot, pushing out the air.

Now. Add some sausage (gasp!) or bacon to that sub and I might judge you slightly.

But probably not because bacon and sausage is da bomb.com.

ariz17

@canonmom413 exactly!  Just a teaser until tomorrow.

You have no idea. If it wasn't pouring rain here today, I would have jumped ship and start my listeria hysteria today.

Y'all think I'm joking. Just go ahead and prepare yourself and your listeria...I'm starting a listeria post tomorrow. We need to show pictures of allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll it.

riverrainez

I was biking back to work after a morning coffee meeting today and was soo tempted to stop and get a listeria sandwich. But it was only 9:45 am. Figured I could hold out one more day for listeria Wednesday. 

acnd08

Ice cream. All the ice cream. 

ariz17

Now my tummy hurts from the foot long.

 

VLillyV

I'm "enjoying" a tart as heck strawberry banana apple smoothie. It's home made and I'm not a fan so far... but then again, I am not a fan of fruit... but this baby needs nutrients! 

natleilynn

@riverrainez hold strong. Tomorrow's gonna be a big day for us all.

canonmom413

@natleilynn I'm in!!! Stopping at Wawa or Panera on my way after my AS. Probably Wawa because their Listeria simply tastes better. 

monstera13

I can't wait to participate in Listeria Wednesday! 

natleilynn

@canonmom413 I'm planning my Jersey Mike's listeria.

MCraig1484

One of our vendors brought us sushi today for lunch! I was just telling DH that I needed some, even if it was cooked and/or veggie roles.  So happy right now!

ksf13

DH suggested Chinese takeout! He should be on his way with it! I'm rather excited about it! 

ariz17

Anyone getting ready for listeria Wednesday?

sjohns908

I'm heavily contemplating OG, so no Listeria for me today 

natleilynn

@ariz17 hold that thought....

natleilynn

Mmmmm Cheez-its....

ariz17

I really haven't had many "weird" cravings during my pregnancy but, I have had this insatiable craving / need for mac and cheese!! Ahhh give me all the mac and all the cheese!

monstera13

@ariz17 Same! I've been eating mac and cheese at least twice a week! 

ariz17

@jessirh Just wanted to let you know that i got a velveeta cup (along with a salad) at lunch anddd heard "return of the Mack" on way back from the store. Seems fitting. 

monstera13

@ariz17 That's awesome! Also....Velveeta is sooooo good. Give me all of that golden deliciousness!
