Up until 5 minutes ago I didn’t believe in pregnancy cravings. I didn’t have them with my first pregnancy and made it 20 weeks through this one before they hit me. Or should I say, before I gave in. Sometimes I think some women use pregnancy as a “free for all” when it comes to food. Luckily for them, most of the free-for-all-preggos I know made it back to their pre-pregnancy weight just a few short months after giving birth. Darn them! Unfortunately, I don’t have that kind of body, metabolism, or luck, so I would always talk myself out of “cravings”. But even after talking myself out of free-for-alling I still gain too much weight with my pregnancies and can’t lose it post-birth. Darn me!

(Fast forward…weight gain…blah…during pregnancy…blah…fat mom…blah blah blah.) Anyway, call me crazy, but I think I just had a true pregnancy craving. AND I gave in. The End.

Sorry to end so abruptly but I’m cutting this post short so I can enjoy my pickles, carrots, and ranch dressing. Mmmm. Makes my mouth water just typing it.
