Time to make the baby

Given my constant hunger of late, I've determined that Bean's appetite is compliments of Sam. Last night, I kept having to eat one thing after the next, until I ate some fruit leather and it took me over the top.

Lordy, child, aren't you ever satisfied? I know, I know, you're trying to grow another inch, but I just ate 20 minutes ago.

I feel like that old Dunkin' Donuts commercial, but instead of "Time to make the donuts...," it's a feeling of, "Time to eat...."

Shok, did you ever see that SNL sketch where they're retiring the Dunkin Donuts guy, shooting the final commercial, and he keeps adding to the lines? "Time to make the donuts...and time to DIE." Oooooohhh so hilarious. One of Jon Lovitz's best.

Seriously, "fruit leather"! I was going to post about my fruit leather crave...ha :) They switched brands here at the local shop, so I found myself testing it all out. What's your favourtite?

Shokufeh, I find much humor in this story. It's adorable. And right after my friend Amy called to say she just got horribly sick in the middle of a big work meeting as she nears the end of her first trimester too. Eeee.

George, I don't think I saw that, but it sounds funny. I relate to that guy now - I'm really trying to keep myself psyched about eating, but man, it's draining. Just like donuts would be, eventually.

Anissa, I don't regularly eat fruit leather - but this one was a mango one (actually a mix of apple and mango) from the health food store. After its miraculous filling powers the other night, I might stock up on some more.

Giao, hope you're taking good care of yourself. And that your friend hits second-trimester-bliss soon. I'm a few days away from officially being in my second trimester, but my energy levels are soaring these days.

I learned that fruit leather is quite common in the US. Opposite to here. I get it from Persian stores only, and I only like the really sour ones: plum or cherry. mhhhhh!
