P is for Pickles and Ice Cream....

Okay, whoever said that pregnant women want to eat pickles all the time was sadly mistaken. I have never liked pickles and I STILL don't like pickles. They are gross. ALL pickles are gross...sweet pickles, dill pickles....I mean, there is nothing grosser to me that people buying a giant pickle out of a jar at a ballgame or the movies and eating like its a yummy hotdog. YUCK! Pickles are gross...EVEN when you are pregnant!



Now ice cream on the other hand...is another story. I have always liked ice cream and find myself wanting at least "a little bite" after supper each night. I have always been a fan of Baskin Robbins Pralines and Cream, Cold Stone's Cheesecake with Strawberries and Classic Homemade Vanilla from Blue Bell....but these days I am a sucker for Ben & Jerry's Cinnamon Buns! I swear it is the best ice cream in the world! I actually discovered this flavor last summer at the beach...We were on our annual beach trip with Reed's mom and "the crew" over Memorial Day weekend when we made a late night run to the grocery to get some snacks! I have not had it many times since then...until now. Our freezer is stocked. Well....its WAS stocked until I got out of the bathtub tonight to find my wonderful husband scarfing down the last few bites in the last tub of Cinnamon Buns. (This was not a good moment at our house.) I had been dreaming about those last few bites whiles I was in the tub...and just like that they were gone! GONE! Don't worry...I am sure my sweet husband will have me restocked in no time!
