You know what sounds good.....

So unbeknownst to me, pregnancy cravings are very real. I kind of thought pregnant women just used it as an excuse to get their husbands to wait on them hand and foot, and kind of to just eat whatever they want.... but NO! It is a very VERY real thing. Here's how I know...

On Saturday night, we went to a wedding shower for Joanna's sister out in Granbury. It was beautiful driving out there (other than the Baylor game on the radio) and the house we went to was on a cattle ranch!! It was just finished in May and it's just a different world to live like that. The shower in the master bathroom had like 20 shower heads, and guess who's idea it was to turn them on? Of COURSE Jeff wants to see what it looks like when all the shower heads are on. Luckily he didn't get soaking wet!

Anyways, back to my story. I hadn't been feeling very well that day, and for dinner they had catered BBQ Briscuit and Sausage. For some reason, I just knew that I couldn't eat that.... so I just stuck with the sourdough bread and lots of fruit. (Oh, and they had PICKLES!) So when we were leaving at 9:15, I was a little bit hungry, to say the least. So Jeff, being the kind-hearted husband he is, said "What sounds good?" Oh, husbands of prego wives... NEVER EVER ask that question. Jeff learned the hard way!!

So I started thinking to myself, "Self-What sounds good?"

"You know what sounds good, babe? A hot pretzel! With Cheese!"

"Becky- where are we going to get a hot pretzel?"

Silence.

So Jeff called all the sports bars and movie theaters we could think of by our house. No pretzels. Where to get a pretzel?

"Becky, I think we're going to have to find you something else. What ELSE sounds good?"

"Nothing else sounds good. That's pretty much the only thing I can even think about eating right now." I really had never been more serious about eating anything ever before!!!

So, as we were driving down I-30 towards Dallas, I see these bright lights off to the right that I could swear were from a "Main Event" building. So I begged Jeff to pull over and see if they had pretzels. It turned out that the "Main Event" was really a ghetto movie theater!!! Nonetheless, they definitely had pretzels. So Jeff went into the theater, without buying a movie ticket and bought me a pretzel and hot cheese. It tasted SO good. Too bad for me though, after three or four bites I got really sick. It did taste good though!! :)

I haven't had another desire for a pretzel since. I'll keep you posted though!
