Those have to be 6 of my favorite words when it comes to salad greens. Equally exciting to me is that for the last two days I’ve been able to actually eat salad for lunch.
I made a rather delicious one by combining:
· Spinach leaves
· Red seedless grapes
· Avocado
· Fresh thyme leaves
· Chunks of yummy cheese
· Dressing of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, pepper, and sea salt
Why is this so exciting? Because well past the 1st trimester, I’ve experienced so-called “morning sickness”. Mine is usually worse in the evenings. It flared up again during and after traveling too. If Ahuva’s pregnancy is any predictor, I can expect to have some vomiting all the way through to the end.
Some more good news, I just read that morning sickness is associated with high IQs of babies: http://www.babble.com/CS/blogs/strollerderby/archive/2009/04/24/sick-in-the-morning-good-your-kids-will-thank-you.aspx
Yes, I am now (quite) pregnant again. Expecting Bambino, a boy, August 6th.
