Pregnancy Craving: Cupcakes, get in my belly NOW!

All day long I’ve had a pregnancy craving for cupcakes.  Cupcakes have been dancing in my head and screaming, “Jane, go buy me and eat me.  I’m delicious!”

Naturally I did what any other pregnant girl would do:  I searched high and low for cupcakes and went to buy one.  

And by one, I mean three.  And by three, I mean that’s all they had.  I would have bought more if they were available, you know for future pregnancy cupcake cravings.  

Sure I was still in my pj’s, hadn’t brushed my slighty greasy hair yet, and still had my glasses on.  Sure I was laying on the couch, preparing to dream about cupcakes.  It didn’t matter.  

I quickly got off the couch like my life depended on it.  I washed my face, put on my contacts, threw on some clothes, put on a hat (really, there’s no hope for greasy hair and why cut into cupcake time trying to make it look decent), and was out the door.  Nothing like cupcakes for a pregnancy craving to get me moving!

I cleaned the cupcake place out.  I bought a lemon cupcake, chocolate cupcake, and a carrot cake cupcake.  I might add that it was torture driving home from the bakery.  Sure, it’s only a 10-15 minute drive, but you try driving in the car with 3 cupcakes just staring at you, begging to be eaten.  It’s damn hard.

Tarzan and I have this thing.  Whenever one of us gets home, we find the other, give a kiss, and say hi.  It’s something that we’ve always done, but today that went right out the window.  He was upstairs on the treadmill, so I figured I wouldn’t bother him (right.  Read: I couldn’t wait to dive into my cupcake.)

I got the lemon cupcake out of the container, put it on a paper plate, and went to town.  You would have thought that I hadn’t eaten for days.  Like I was eating this cupcake as if my whole life depended on it.  Ha!  That makes me laugh.  Truth is, I couldn’t wait to shove that cupcake in my mouth fast enough.

Let it be known that I should have taken the time the time to get a knife and fork and cut it the proper way, but that would have taken the fun out of it.  Sure, the yellow icing wouldn’t have gotten in my nose, but that’s what makes the cupcake eating experience in the privacy of your own home the most fun.

All this cupcake talk has me thinking about the two lonely cupcakes in my refrigerator.  

Hmm… gotta go!
