@kbrown2385 I definitely was craving a BLT the other day. The one I had was a bit disappointing so I'm still craving one 😁

@biolprof I had one from subway the other day. Just thinking about it makes me want another one 🤤.

@kbrown2385 and @biolprof, I've been craving sandwiches like crazy this pregnancy. I love the BLT from Subway on flatbread, with pepperjack cheese and TONS of pickles. mmmmmm I guess I know what's for dinner.

biolprof

thinking I might have to add this to the meal plan this week. I can't do subway. Their GF buns are terrible but I have some good bread at home and I bet we could make some good ones! Mouth watering!

Just a thought on the TTT thread - in my last board we did just 10 things going on with us currently instead of it being specific to a topic.  I thought it was a great way to get to know the ladies on my other board and as a result we became super close and supported eachother through a lot of ups and downs in our lives.  We continue to do TTT this way on our Facebook group so it keeps us involved and up to date on eachother's lives.  Anyone have any other thoughts on this?

Here's my TTT late:
1.  Fair food 🤤
2.  Lazy Sunday at home today.  It's raining, I have coffee, and my daughter is being adorable. 
3.  Watching my daughter love on our cat & dog every day.  She loves the shit out of them, they allow it, and it's super cute.
4.  Spending quite a bit of time with family this week.
5.  How active little man is and that I can feel him practically all day long these days.
6.  Looking forward to H beginning dance tomorrow.  She's excited too.
7. Feeling hopeful about the potential of a new job.

That's all I've got.

@valerie4786 I like that idea!

Here's my TTT, also late

1) MH. Man he drives me crazy sometimes but I couldn't imagine doing this baby thing with anyone else. 
2) foot massages
3) cool breezes in the evening after a hot day
4) chocolate, anything chocolate
5) having a dishwasher (we need a new one but still grateful to have one at all)
6) 2nd on the kitty snuggles
7) freshly washed sheets
8) ice cold water
9) my friends 
10) this board. Cheesy, but it's so nice to have a sounding board of women all in the same stage of pregnancy.

@valerie4786 we can do it that way if you want. Do you want to be in charge of the thread? It’ll be something you post every Tuesday.

@kbrown2385 I can do that!  I almost started it several weeks ago but then held off.
