Fruit Passion


A year and a week ago I wrote this post about strawberries. My view has not changed one bit! I've been eating the most sugary sweet strawberries I've ever had, and I'm looking forward to enjoying more all summer.

Throughout my whole pregnancy I've been craving cool, sweet, juicy fruit--I can't get enough of it! I've always loved fruit, but now I want to eat it all the time and I don't want to eat vegetables anymore (I still like them, just don't desire them). Lately it's been crisp Fuji apples, succulent navel oranges, sweet and sour kiwis, and crunchy red grapes. And I can't wait for watermelon, honeydew, mangoes, and nectarines to be in season shortly.

I'm happy with this craving: it's delicious and healthy! What foods did/do you ladies crave?

I've craved fruit this pregnancy too! I could eat a whole thing of Costco strawberries all by myself! And I love this fruit dip: 8 oz. pkg cream cheese and a 7 oz. jar of marshmellow cream. Mix them up in your mixer and serve....so yummy :)

I always crave lots of fruit when I'm pregnant too! And especially with this pregnancy I've been craving everything LEMON flavored. Lemon bars, lemon cake, I just need lemon stuff all the time!
