Cravings

So someone just asked me the other day if I have been craving anything yet. And I must say there is nothing specific, but quite a few different things. Its really weird though because when I crave something I crave it really bad. Then after I get it I think its awesome and I want it all day everyday! So I run out to the store and get a big bag or box of whatever it is because I know I will be wanting it ALL the time right??
WRONG

For example, one of the first "cravings" I had was string cheese. So the next time I was at the store I bought a big bag of sting cheese because, at the time, I wanted it all the time. Well... the bag I bought is still sitting in the fridge and only partially eaten. Now when I open the fridge trying to find something that sounds yummy to snack on, I look at the cheese and think ewww gross. Hmmmmmm...


So my next example is really strange. After string cheese I was craving Poor Brothers Salt and Vinegar chips... funny I know. But after I got some I repeated the same process as before. Went to the store, bought a big bag, and thought I was going to stock up for all the future times I was going to want some. Well... they were still sitting in my pantry only partially eaten when I decided to take them to work to be eaten by anyone else who wanted them because I definitely did not anymore.I did not even want to open my pantry and look at them anymore. Just looking at them made me sick! So you think I would have learned my lesson by now right??
Haha. WRONG

The next thing I was craving was these suckers. I got a little bag of goldfish at the store because I thought it would be a good snack. Then after I had them and devoured the whole bag in a total of ONE day I decided... man I need to get a big box of these things. Because at the time I was thinking these are SUPER amazing and I want them ALL the time. So I went to the store and bought the big BOX (not just a bag but the huge BOX) of goldfish thinking this will last me like... maybe one week. HA! Funny. I can at least say I finished more of the goldfish than the other two "cravings" I had, but since I bought the HUGE box, I still have tons of goldfish sitting in my pantry. At least this time the gold fish wont go bad and I can keep them and see if they will sound AMAZING to me later in the pregnancy.
So now that I am writing this blog I have come to realize these crazy cravings I've been having.I think I will think twice before I run out and grab a big box or bag of anything that sounds good because a week later it probably will not sound so good anymore. But then again... when I want something I really can't control myself and I will probably be repeating this whole process throughout my pregnancy.
P.S. My latest craving has been NERDS the candy and I have not gotten to the store yet to get any yet... but I really really want some soon!!

  1. SO funny! I craved Poore Brothers Jalepeno chips and any Cheese Sticks....not so much anymore, weird how that works!! Now it's pickles w/ cream cheese wrapped in lunch meat, but pickles give me heartburn so it's not working out too well :)
