Simple Pleasures

One of the only things I ever think about these days is food. 

My favorites so far this pregnancy:

Mmm...the tangy sweetness of frozen raspberries...or fresh, either way they are too expensive, but too worth it!

Trust me if you don't like these you are missing out on one of the most savory foods on the planet. Ooooh, the salty pickled delight of olives....just try them one more time?

                                        

I actually had pretty much stopped buying bananas altogether before I got pregnant. Now they're a staple again! Just so easy to eat!!

                                  

So Brad and I went to dinner at a Moroccan restaurant the other night when my stomach was giving me all kinds of trouble. I could hardly eat my meal, sadly, because it was good...I think. Anyway, at the end of the meal Brad got some weird dessert and I wanted some of that hot drink I saw the waiter pour into someone's cup from WAY up high and it was cool. He said it was mint tea, I asked if it had caffeine and he said, such a minuscule amount it's negligible. So I thought, sounds herbal to me! Well I drank it and WHAM! Instant relief! My stomach felt SO much better! I could almost hear a choir of angels singing in the background. I told the waiter, he offered us the recipe and it turns out it's tea tea. Oops. I told my Mom and since she's the best Mom in the world she said, if it makes you feel better:

"WHO CARES DRINK IT!!!"

Haha. To me if it comes from my Mom it might as well come from God. So, mint tea it is.

THE END

P.S. To all y'all who I interact with lately and especially my Mom and brothers and sisters. I know I'm a grouch and crabby and cantankerous and anything else you want to call me. Sorry. Hopefully it'll be over soon, but for sure in 6 1/2 months.
