I was lying in bed last night and a thought popped into my mind. "I really really want some pickles." Pickles?! Let me start off by saying that I HATE pickles. My whole life I have done everything in my power to avoid eating pickles. I pick them out of my food and have never even purchased them at the grocery store. So I guess my question is, why pickles? This pregnancy is doing crazy stuff to my body.

That's funny! I love pickles. Reading your post made me want one too! I crave a lot of things at night, too. Maybe that's a sign that you're getting better! Hope you are feeling good.
Hey Stephanie!
Congrats on the baby. We found your blog off of Kasey and Bryans. I hope you are doing better! I made your loaded Mashed potatoes recipe yesterday for mothers day. They were delicious!

Pickles are fabulous! I made bry buy me a HUGE jar from Sam's club earlier in my pregnancy. They were fantastic. The body does strange things when you are pregnant!
Love ya tons!

Also, I googled the benefit of pickles and here is what I got:
It's low in Saturated Fat, and very low in Cholesterol. It's also a good source of Iron and Vitamin A, not to mention Potassium and Manganese, and a very good source of Dietary Fibre, Vitamin K and Calcium.
So there you go.. at least your not craving dirt.. there are women out there that have dirt as a craving. :)
Kasey :)
