I don’t know what it is. I don’t know why it is.
But I do know I can blame it on the baby.
I’m talking cravings, baby, cravings.
People just love to ask you about your cravings. It’s like the weirder they are, the more pregnancy cred you have.
Pickles and icecream? You go, girl.
Kit Kat and noodles? Bring it on.
So I must seem like a total square when I say that the worst I’ve done is two weeks spent eating nothing but Mac ‘n Cheese (when I don’t like cheese); a very specific dinner of banana, berries (it had to be berries) and chocolate cake; and a whopper of a meal I inhaled in 20 minutes of two Micky D’s cheeseburgers, large fries, and iced coffee.
I wish I were a lot cooler and craved bizarre shit that would make me turn to Jay at 3 am and proclaim, “Jay, go get me some chocolate-covered sour Skittles. NOW.”
Come to think of it, I have some mighty cravings, but I know Jay can’t help me there.
Fulfilling them involves getting on a plane, flying 20 hours to the Equator, and returning with some freeze-dried carrot cake and yong tau foo.
Problem isâ€â€in 20 hoursâ€â€the baby wants pickles and icecream.
if you (or baby) get really desperate, there is carrot cake and yong tau foo across the border..:)
You have yong tau foo over there??? AAAAAAH! Tell me where!
there is a place called Golden Summit in Richmond BC where they sell everything you need to make yong tau foo..all the fishballs, taufu etc you need (import from Singapore) I ate yong tau foo (very authentic too!) at a friend’s place who bought the ingredients from this place (very very good)..even had the sauce and the chilli and the vegetables! yah too bad it’s not readily available in a restaurant (yet!)
hey, they do sell fish paste at the Asian Supermarket like viet wah and Asian Food centre (AFC). Buy tau po, etc.. watever u crave.. and viola
