  • I just went and grabbed the pickle jar and brought it back to the couch. No ketchup for me. Why ruin a good thing.

    It's usually when I'm eating pickles with a meal like turkey burgers or In and Out :) but if the craving hits I go for it

  • I like pickles from my bar. They are sweeter. But other than that I hate pickles. 
  • Mm pickles. Only the white crunchy dill ones though, I hate yellow or sweet pickles. Weirdest pickle snack I ever witnessed was an area in AZ where all the kids in town dipped whole pickles in Kool-Aid powder. Like all of them ate that as a snack all the time. So gross.

  • My husband LOVES pickles. For our entire relationship and marriage, I've taken a bite out of every single pickle I've ever received as part of a meal and given him the rest. I don't really like pickles, but it's this weird strange thing we do. He patiently waits for me to take a bite before he takes it off my plate. It makes zero sense, but it's one of our "things" 
  • I like pickles but only with something else. Like a Cesar or cheese and crackers

  • I love pickles. Always have! When we were growing up, pickles were served at every meal. Lol it seems strange now--but it explains why I love them! 
  • My husband and I are a perfect match because he only likes dill pickles and I only like sweet pickles. I can eat dill on a burger, but I can down a jar of sweet pickles in one sitting.

    Um that's revolting....
  • I have always loved pickles. 
    We're headed home from the wedding. Driving allllll day. 
  • This could probably count more as a FFFC but we are moving at the end of the month and I shamelessly use the fact that our house is in chaos due to packing to also justify not tidying on a regular basis. I'm sitting here trying to get up the energy to throw a load of laundry in at least...
  • @TattoosandLace, how was the pizza and potato bar? I hope it was amazing! 
  • Also team #lovepickles 

    I have four more hours of work and then I am off for 9 glorious days. My co-worker is annoying me and I'm trying to hide from her. 

    And if you are winding down for the evening and need a good read. March has a thread that is taking a nose dive quickly. Baby bump. 
    *sigh* oh March BMB. Thank you for your non stop entertainment.

    But wait..there's more?

    Yeah Meatball tipped us off about the "baby Bump" thread. It's been shut down but it's worth your time! ;)

    March is the gift that keeps on giving. 

    Btw I am also #TeamPickles. That's how DD realized I was pregnant before we told her. We were buying bbq sauce & I passed the pickle section. 

    Me:Oh! Pickles! I've been wanting pickles.
    DD: Really? So would you say you're having a....craving for pickles?
    Me: Um....maybe?

    A few days later when we showed her the US picture she said "I KNEW IT! No one just suddenly gets a craving for pickles!"

  • @meatballs37 I save all my gifs to Dropbox & load them from there. It's been working great since I figured out how to use it!

    I was an avid Tumblr user which is a haven for gifs for all occasions. I have them all sorted by type, category, genre and even fandom. I have waaaay too many Supernatural gifs.

    I obviously need to research this out and download Dropbox. Having gifs right on hand would be awesome. I would need a whole folder for Britney Spears expressions.

  • Just read the March post.  Holy Batman that escalated quickly!!

    If you haven't try fried pickle slices with ranch.  Life changing.
  • Wtf March? What even. I'm having three babies rapid fire, but my blump is blump and uterus is definitely still low. 
  • I want to know why I have never tried tater tot casserole before now in my life!  I made it last night for dinner and it's sooo good!  I've had it for lunch today to and thinking of hiding the tiny bit that's left from everyone else in my house.  It's like mac and cheese with fried potatoes instead of noodles and of so  creamy and yummy!

    And the recipe please?????
  • Wtf March? What even. I'm having three babies rapid fire, but my blump is blump and uterus is definitely still low. 
    Right? I just had my son in April but I'm definitely aware that my bump is all left over fat, bloat and weak core muscles. Not baby yet. 
  • @mamaof5already - ooh! I love a good tater tot casserole. Please give us the recipe!

    hmm, should we have a recipe thread?
  • Feel free to skip.. I didn't feel this warranteditsown thread since it felt so Dear Diary, but what would you do?

    This is LO3 for DH and me. DD1 is 2.5 and DD2 is 13.5 months. MIL has had pretty shitty comments when we announced both pregnancies.

    with DD1, she tried to bully a nursing student and shove past her while I was actively pushing DD1 out. With DD2, she refused to come to the hospital and told DH's family that I didn't want anyone there. So literally no one came. It was definitely a planned ahead thing that we only found out about the day she was born. 

    We live 675+miles from my family and all of his family (except his brother) live within a 30minute radius from us. 

    We had that family camping BS right after we found out I was pregnant. SIL3 (His brother's wife) saw me throw up an entire burger and wouldn't stop questioning. I finally told her "yes, but it's really early and we aren't telling anyone yet. This weekend is about you (to play to her ego since it was baby shower weekend for her the day after we had DD2's first birthday)." Then I said "let my husband tell his brother" because both times prior, someone else has told BIL. Well, before the end of the evening she had told BIL. 

    Now for the WWYD: we haven't announced (12w3d today). When would you announce?

    My favorite out of the whole thread was when the OP said "I'm not introducing myself because I've done Bump before and I don't know you people." 

    Yes! Exactly. I definitely had a "wait. What?!" Moment there too!
  • @TattoosandLace if it were me, I'd just announce now. If I were hesitant I would wait until after the anatomy scan, but since you're team green (I think) it wouldn't really change the announcement.
