The Limelette Doesn't Fall Far...

Way back when I was pregnant with Calypso and living in Trinidad I had some pretty horrendous food cravings.  The main ones were for lasagna, broccoli, peanut butter TastyKakes, and Doritos.  I had others from time to time but those items were virtually unavailable at all so they went unsated...and I became a bit crazed at times.  Now you have to understand when I say crazed I mean I was pitifully obsessed.  You need to take just a moment and go read this old post about how those cravings were met.  Its short, I promise.

Ok, now that you're back...




This weekend when Calypso came home (and after we both got to sleep in from the 3am arrival) she let me know she'd had some powerful food cravings while she was in Costa Rica.  First on her list was spaghetti.  I smiled.  Next she said she wanted salad that was made with lettuce instead of cabbage.  Then she told me she was really hoping we could get bagels for breakfast.  Finally, she told me she was absolutely DYING for.....broccoli.

I didn't give her a bouquet but she moaned in delight over the spaghetti dinner with a garden salad heavy on the broccoli that we had Saturday night.
