This Pregnancy Brought to You by the Letter "P"

No Sugar Added Strawberry, Tangerine & Raspberry




As in Popsicle.  OMG.


So it's a bajillion degrees here, as it is in many places, and I have rediscovered a food I gave up on long ago - popsicles.


I always equated eating popsicles with touching chalk.  I'm weird enough that it's not just chalk on a chalkboard that makes me cringe, it's just touching chalk that's enough to do me in.  Popsicles were the same way on my teeth - ick.  Give me a bowl of ice cream over that any day.


But I was so wrong!  They are the best!!  Especially when you are huge and sweaty from the inside out and just want something fruity. And I discovered these fruit bars that are really tasty and don't get that slimy stickiness that some others do.  They are only 25 calories!  I can eat six in one sitting and not feel guilty! Even the ones that aren't the 'no sugar added' aren't even that bad for you.  I would rather eat one of these than ice cream now - so not like me! 


This is what will get baby and I through the next 8 weeks.  And this is how you can tell I've gone totally crazy - writing an ode to popsicles.

  1. I may need to try those. I've been on a steady diet of frozen yogurt for the past few months, but I need to switch it up.

  4. So we spent GOBS of money saving up for and then going on that Disneyworld trip last October. We specifically planned it for Epcot's Food and Wine Festival. And then I ended up being 6 weeks pregnant and EVERYTHING made me want to vomit. So the food that made me happiest the entire time we were there? The $3 tricolored popsicles. Yup. ;)
