ole garbage disposal

Seriously, I can't even blog during lunch anymore.

(I now spend the whole time feeding my face.)

Here is my usual food routine:

breakfast number one

gingerale
crackers
coffee or cola -- my only caffeine of the day

breakfast number 2

nutri-grain bar
probiotic yogurtish shake
string cheese
yogurt (unless it's "fruit on the bottom." gag me.)

lunch

healthy choice steamer meal and a whole wheat bagel with cream cheese

or

a whole wheat bagel with mozarella cheese and roasted garlic hummus
tortilla chips
more string cheese
raw veggies with obscene amounts of green onion dip
water

afternoon work snack

carrot sticks
oyster crackers
almonds
granola bar

dinner

whatever hubs cooks for me. Monday it was Five Guys Burgers and Fries, last night it was pizza rolls. Tonight, he's grilling brats and we're having potato salad on the side!

dessert

cheesecake
ice cream sammies

night time snack

toast
more string cheese
half a pbj


Yeah, so all this talk about food has me FAMISHED.

Point of this post? Yes, I've been noshing CONSTANTLY, but when it comes right down to it -- nothing really sounds that fantastic.

What did you crave when you were preggers?

Sounds about right!
With my first child (boy), I craved berries, yogurt, and grapefruit. Very healthy.
With my second (girl), I stuffed in every little morsel of junk food I could find. Chips, cookies, you name it. In fact, when I went to the grocery store, I would buy a wedge of chocolate cake from the bakery and eat it in the car on the way home.

Sugar sugar and more sugar. Not a healthy choice.

You go girl!!! Forget about blogging and feed that baby!!! We'll be here with you listening to what you can't do because you're eating. Wait a minute why are you blogging? Aren't you hungry... maybe you should be eating!

Never having been pregnant, I of course had no food cravings. When the spousal unit was preggers, however, I had a very strong craving for the world's strongest air freshener. Along about the seventh month or so the spousal unit and I were staying in Rome and I went out for a cig and came back to the hotel and literally -- and I mean literally -- reeled back at the hurricane-force odor of flatulence that greeted me when I opened the door.

Anyway, eat up!

The only food I remember craving was green olives - which I hated until I got pregnant. I could eat a whole jar in one sitting. Of course, I must've been eating a lot of other things because I gained 50 lbs of pregger weight (and only 7lbs of that was baby).

I've never been pregnant myself, but my mother used to crave rainbow sherbet ice cream mixed with green olives and whipped cream when I was in the oven.

I know. Gross.

I always wanted toast, cold cereal or burritos. Nothing weird. Oh, with one child I wanted peanut butter fudge constantly!

:) Just be glad you can eat and are not so sick that you can't eat anything at all. And you are eating WAY healthier than I ever did. Good for you!

Closing Arguments, Trial 3. The Defense: Closing the Case of Adnan Syed v Alice LaCour and Brett Talley

  Would Hae Have Liked Pineapple on Pizza? If it Pleases the Court... Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, I want to start by thanking you for your time. It is no small task to put your lives on hold and focus in on the details and particulars and specifics of this case, and it may be a struggle to focus when you have to think about what you're missing at home. Your civil duty - and your willingness to fulfill it - does NOT go unnoticed. I mentioned "time." It's a relative, term, right? I had to wait in line at the post office for 15 minutes. I waited for the checkout gal at Wal-Mart for 20, because they didn't have enough lanes open. I don't know about you, but I try to be patient. Sometimes I fail to wait gracefully, but I really do try.  So. Look at Adnan. For over TWENTY-THREE YEARS he has been waiting... patiently. 23 years ago, I was about the same age as Adnan. I graduated high school in the spring of 1999, just like he did - or would have - had he not bee

20 Points in a Basic Story in the Botched Case Against Adnan Syed: I Must Be Insane as that's 5x More than any Other Basic Story Presentation I've Ever Seen

  Basic Story With 20 Points:  Could Adnan be Innocent? "It's not a cop-out; it's case law." ~Bob Ruff, host, Truth and Justice Pod   1 Adnan was the main suspect - Hae's family passed that along to Officer Adcock on the afternoon she disappeared. Originally, they suspected she might be with Don, even though she had to work at 6pm and had never once NOT brought her cousin home. Does anyone know how old the second cousin is? Two cousins lived with Hae. And Officer Adcock's Supplemental Report dated 1/13/99 states that Mr. Lee advises that she "did not pick up his two cousins from school.") Did they go to the same school, these cousins? Another question that could be explored is why Hae's uncle is the only immediately family member who doesn't live with Hae.  Another pain point for me - I'm confused as to why the cousins did not live with their dad, Hae's uncle... but look. Every family has different dynamics. I mean, I gues

Not The Nisha Call: Other Things to Consider in the Case of Adnan Syed

"If there is anything about my case, man - I want to know... I want to test it... There's nothing about my case that that I'm afraid of." - Adnan Syed Serial, Episode 12: What We Knew Instead of focusing on a flower and Jay's Changing Stories, Consider This: A) The policemen handling the Missing Persons Investigation did sloppy and lazy work. They back dated reports and failed to interview multiple people  thoroughly enough. B) The police did not interview the family robustly enough to understand what else might have been going on in Hae's life. They, to my knowledge, did not find a translator and instead relied on the guidance of her younger brother. C) A computer, a floppy disk containing electronic diary entries were noted and later went "missing"  D) Hae's email and AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) accounts were never researched thoroughly, and her online activity is relatively unknown, outside of her newly updated "away message" which s
