My inner carnivore is on the rampage.

Know what's frustrating, even at 13 weeks? Food cravings.

We have a metric TON of cookies in our house - Belgian chocolate-covered ones, Philipino shortbread cookies, coconut macaroons, you name it - courtesy of my brother's girlfriend. But am I craving sweets? Noooo.

Literally, all I want to eat is meat - turkey sandwiches, hamburgers, ruben sandwiches piled with corned beef and sauerkraut. :( I don't have any inclination to eat these cookies, and they're sitting in their tins collecting dust.

Oh, and root beer. All I want to drink lately is root beer. It's bizarre.

Maybe I should give the cookies away? I know my coworkers would eat them in the blink of an eye.

Looks like you're wanting some iron.

Its like Pheobe from Friends. When she was pregnant she craved meat too.

You're pregnant? I didn't know that!

I have a meat heavy recipe if you're interested (it's not too hard to make either), and it's probably great that you're craving 'real' food instead of sweets.

Either that or your baby has a little Sokka in him.

I giggle each time I read your updates. Memories...Literally for weeks 19-28 we went to Black Angus, which was over 45 minutes away from our place at the time, for steak, baked potatoes, and steamed broccoli at least 3 times a week. I had to have it. And chicken teriyaki, turkey subs, trail mix, and Tim's Cascade BBQ potato chips.

You do realize of course that as soon as you get rid of the cookies, you will want them?
