@vanillalatte89 I just had some for lunch! So good! I had that whole meal again for Mother's Day and hubby was kind enough to make enough for a few days of leftovers! Yay! I am proud to say that my pregnant self is eating ALL.THE.THINGS! I can't stop or even slow down this week. Just constantly eating. And NOTHING satiates me.
Pretty sure I’m singlehandedly keeping the shaved ice place by my house in business. Not really, especially since it’s finally been warm for a whole week, but definitely last week when it was rainy and “cold” (according to natives of where I live)...
Ok, had to add a AW pic of my Irish beer cheese soup because my whole family loved it! One soup I can put on our list for every one (and it was stupid easy too) instead of making 2-3 soups or relying on canned crap!
I made nachos and baby went nuts enjoying it. He usually moves after I eat but even while I was chewing he was doing flips and jumping around. He’s definitely my child 😂. My dad says he’s his grandson for sure. That has to be a good thing though as in AZ, Mexican food is pretty much the baseline for all cooking. I can’t tell you how many things that don’t typically include chili powder that’s I still put chili powder in it anyway. 😂
@vanillalatte89 I drink the yellow/green when I know I'm dehydrated. I like the strawberry if I'm just drinking it, which I've been known to do.
Also, for me it's been tea. So much tea, and not much else, because my appetite is tiny due to being sick. Thanks DH. I got off a plan 12 hours ago and my right ear is still clogged.
@hestia14 swear my little girl loves chocolate.. but can't blame her.. both parents have a sweet tooth LOL!
I'm already thinking about lunch.. have been since about 8am.. I'm thinking chicken noodle soup with a grilled cheese.. then i need some sort of chocolate item to finish off my meal..but i also want the $0.50 frosty from Wendy's but too lazy to drive to the other side of town..
@hestia14 considering that he acts that way with oranges, I think he does. That and literally any time I eat ham he makes me regret it. I think they definitely have things they like and don’t lol.
I’ve been really really good at eating at the opposite ends of the price spectrum this pregnancy. More PF Chang’s/overpriced Chinese than I care to admit, but also a ridiculous amount of shaved ice, where the ginormous one is $4.5...
I am resting now after a busy morning. I took a class today called “Demystifying the French Macaron” at this awesome chocolate shops that I love in Boulder called Piece, Love, and Chocolate. I’ve had SO MUCH SUGAR this morning. Lol. But it is all worth it!
I made the orange color. It is blood orange flavor. I had so much fun and learned a ton. I’m planning to make them for the baby shower in two weeks since I can make the shells ahead of time and then just have to fill them the day of.
@hinotes it wasn't too bad. It was a 3-hour class and I made two trays of them, probably could have made more in the time frame, but that was all the ingredients that I had. If you have a good hand with a piping bag, they really were pretty easy. I went to the class to figure out what I had been doing wrong, and now I know! So I feel comfortable making them on my own now.
@hakele Congrats on sustaining a 3 hour activity! 🤣 Either my feet or my brain would have given out at hour 2... Currently having breakfast at the Starbucks I waddled to...but I left the house! 🏆
I keep craving spicy and/or sour foods, have a little of something like spicy Thai or Mexican food thinking it'll be ok, then having awful heartburn, waking up multiple times during the night to take Tums
PSA: Friday is National Donut Day and both Krispie Kreme and Dunkin are doing free donut promotions. You have to buy a drink first at Dunkin, but I’m pretty sure Krispie Kreme will let you pick out whatever donut you want for free! 😋🍩
I made a carrot cake for DH’s birthday yesterday... It’s his favorite kind of cake, and it was a hit with the extended in-law family last night! I woke up today ready to eat more too...

I'm still crushing Coke slurpees more often than necessary. And now that it's so hot - popsicles!
Also I keep eating BLT's and have decided I will have one for dinner.
