Re: Pickles?
...back to the store tomorrow.
Generally I have been in the mood for all-American type foods... like at work I have been getting a grilled cheese and fries because nothing else sounds good. My husband made a delicious pasta with bolognese sauce last night and I ate it but it's really too rich and flavorful for me right now. I'm not going BLAND, just I don't need too much POW in the food.
But my weirdest craving so far: I wanted roast pork congee for about a week before I finally broke down and found a recipe online so I could try to make it myself. When I lived closer to Chinatown I'd get it all the time at this great little noodle shop, but the Chinese food places around here are more the typical American-style spots so I haven't found a local place to get it from - I even had DH ask the Chinese place we normally go to, just in case they had some secret stuff going on in back that they didn't show us white people
I finally made it over the weekend and while not perfect, it was everything I thought it could be.

Balaustine: an anthology about wanting family
Right now, I'd say I don't have too many cravings. It was baked potatoes for a while. Now I'm back to aversions - just not as bad as before. Still liking carbs - rolls from our deli yumm

Everett Alan James (3lbs8oz) and Eliana Lee (3lbs7oz) born 12/28/13 at 30w6d!
Also craving sweets which is a new thing.
I have been craving Vlassic Zesty Dills- I can easily eat an entire jar if I let myself. Also, chocolate milk (not at the same time as the pickles), cottage cheese (sometimes at the same time as the pickles), and Mac and Cheese.
Sour and crunch. Crumbs falling, the slight moistness of the cracker with pickle on top. Ready for one more bite... =P~
I think I just wrote a poem. Ode to Pickles.
