Not my favorite snack and other news




Someone brought a fantastically high-caloried cheesey spinach dip to a potluck recently. I took a small plate of it home afterwards. And then one afternoon when I was craving an unhealthy snack, I thought of mixing two of my favorite things together: Cheesey spinach dip with green onion pancake.

And well...while it wasn't horrible...we'll just say that it's best enjoyed separately. =) Lesson learned. So if you ever find yourself with this same craving...you'll have some idea what to expect.

Oh yes...I promised to share why I disappeared for a while. It's nothing spectacular...or maybe it is...but we're expecting! And in that first trimester where I disappeared, I basically couldn't stand the smell of food...cooked or raw. I didn't cook if I didn't have to. I held my breath whenever I walked into the kitchen...or breathed through my mouth so I wouldn't smell anything. I would brace myself whenever I opened the fridge too. Ugh. So yes, no experimenting with foods for me. But the second trimester is going MUCH better so I'll try to get more taste combos up. I'm thinking by the third trimester I'll be feeling/looking like a beached whale and may not be able to operate safely in the kitchen so I'll try to make the most of the next couple months! Thanks for reading!
