It's 2:16 in the morning, and I can't sleep.
It's unfortunate. I have a 16 hour day planned tomorrow. Practicum in the morning, clinicals till 9:30 in the evening. My day starts at 5:34 a.m. and here I am, lying in bed, wasting precious sleep-time.
It's occasions like this when I start thinking deep, "meaningful" thoughts to myself, like "Where am I going in life?", "Why am I here?", or definitely the most pressing of all, "Why is hell is there no effin' turkey in this house?"
That's right, it's the wee hours of the morning and I'm craving deli meats. The only place that offers them that's open right now is Walmart. Maybe I'll drive to Walmart. I am awake...it would only take 45 minutes...
This actually happens quite often. I'll go on a two-three week streak where I only want one particular food item. Recently it's been Rice Krispies (see this post), and before that it was artichokes. I never know what brings these cravings on, and I never know when they're going to switch on me. I've made the mistake of packing the fridge with fresh spinach only to have most of it go bad because I woke up the next day craving garbanzo beans instead. Oh the humanity.
So faithful followers I wish I had a more useful pearl of wisdom to share with you all right now, but unfortunately I don't have the time. You see, I just have to get to Walmart.
What are your cravings?
Hi Marlee!
ReplyDeleteI crave on fried chicken and french fries when my menstruation is coming..maybe yours too.^^

LOL I can tell you I never crave garbanzo beans! When I get a craving, Doritos and Shasta black cherry soda usually do the trick! That was my favorite study food in college.

ReplyDeleteI remember being in Russia and craving chocolate. They have great chocolate so we would stop at the corner store on our way home and I would walk out of the store with a can of pineapple....cravings are so funny sometimes. Go in wanting chocolate come out with pineapple

I can honestly say I have never craved artichokes :) I usually crave something starchy - like mashed potatoes. Or there is the ever popular chocolate.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting. I am now following you back. Have a good weekend!
This last week it has been tomatoes and baked potatoes (not together). Those are pregnancy cravings. Oh and the cheese bite crusted pizza Pizza Hut has been advertising.
