Living in a smaller town, our choices of good quality dining establishments are quite limited...
We have just about every major fast food chain you can think of, a couple Chinese spots, one decent Mexican restaurant (pretty good for not being in Texas), and several mom and pop establishments that specialize in anything deep fried. If you want a good salad... forget it. You're driving to the next town. So basically, the latest trend in the fast food industry to provide healthier options has been a life saver for us. McDonalds Salads, Wendy's Baked Potatoes, and Subway have just about saved our lives. (Or at least added years to it) I definitely cook as often as possible, but with our schedule it's had to be consitant. Regardless of who cooks it, I lean more toward the more fresh things.
One of the most popular pregnancy questions is "What are you craving???" I feel like I'm disappointing people when I give them my list because it's nothing really too incredibly delicious. However, there are a few things that really ALWAYS sound good, ALL the time. I get hungrier more often, but when I sit down to eat, I get pretty full, pretty quick. The hingrier I get, the grumpier and more mean I tend to get. (Sorry Seth!) But, I must be doing something right because I didn't gain one pound during my third month. Apparently this isn't a bad thing... it's probably due to the fact that Centralia food right now just doesn't call to me... or my baby.
Here are a few of my favorite things right now...
Happy hour indeed!
This tends to be the ONE thing that I always want for any meal.
(along with salad goes raw veggies dipped in ranch!)
...goes great with soup too!
...also a friend to soup!
(oh, and the Fresca in the background too... one of my faves right now!)
Skittles!
I've never been a big Skittle lover but right now the purple bag (and only the purple bag) of skittles just calls to me!
These guys make me happy!
(we still have 5 and 1/2 months to go!)
I'm glad I wrote this right before lunch...
