A to Z 2012~~~I is for my Ultimate Pregnancy Craving



Now looking at the letter of the day I bet you are going to think that my craving was ice cream...



                                              NOPE.



          I have heard of just about every weird craving out there.. My mom craved raw rice and pickles when pregnant with me...enough said.


         My friends craved everything from cheese cake from a particular bakery in Manhattan... to french fries from Nathans in Coney Island.


I knew someone who munched on coffee grounds and another who ate a pint of ice cream every night!


Can you guess what my craving was? Not Yet?





It was ICE. I craved it all the time. Just crunching on it fulfilled some craving the way no other food would.



My mouth would water whenever I saw someone with a fountain drink and if they started to crunch the ice at the end well that sent me running to the nearest food place for a cup of that desired ice.



My Husband thought himself lucky that he wasn't sent running anywhere for a craved food. All I had to do was go to the fridge and voila!... there was enough ice to quell my craving....now there was one time (it was 1:00 am)that I begged him to go to our local diner for some cheese cake....

It wasn't really a pregnancy craving; I saw cheese cake on a TV show and it made me want cake, but shhh don't tell him that!
