Food!

This might as well be renamed Rachel's food blog instead of our baby blog.

Food is all that consumes my thoughts. I am mostly nauseous all the time and intermittently really hungry. However little to nothing appeals to me, so satisfying my growling stomach has become an increasingly time consuming hobby of mine. The tricky thing is, although one thing might appeal to me today (and I eat it) by tomorrow the thought of that very food makes me want to throw up. Which makes my diet narrower every day since hardly anything appeals to me in the first place.

For instance, yesterday I craved a Granite City Bedda Chedda Burger. So I begged Nic to go and he gave in (not too shocking since I have become even more whiny and demanding with this pregnancy. I know, I thought it was impossible too). But then he was late from work which meant my stomach was growling (never good) and then we had to wait for 45 minutes to get seated. Finally I got my burger! Just thinking about it right now makes me want to throw up though, so I'm guessing I won't be having another one of those any time soon.

Today we were going to go Christmas shopping and I was thinking about going to Ikea for some presents and all of the sudden I got the worst craving for their Chicken Marsala. So I insist on going there, much to Nic's chagrin. BUT we get there and.....THEY NO LONGER OFFER CHICKEN MARSALA!!! So what does my poor, nauseous, stomach growling self do? Well of course the obvious, throw three separate mini tantrums (much to Nics embarrassment) and reluctantly eat pasta. Although the tantrums were excessive I just don't think you understand how excited I was to eat something that the thought of didn't immediately turn my stomach.

Tonight we had pizza, mostly because Nicholas has had a rough day and I wanted to treat him. I managed to eat a couple of slices without too much trouble but I starting to regret it a little now.



I wonder what tomorrows meal will bring?
