Who says this pregnant girl can’t have cake for breakfast?

by Jane on May 17, 2009 · 6 comments

30 weeks pregnant and eating cake for breakfast. Yummy!Conversation that took place between my pregnant self and Tarzan this morning:

Jane:  ”I really want cake for breakfast.  Is that bad?

Tarzan:Cake for breakfast?? Remember your doctor said to try and mostly have protein at every breakfast, lunch, and dinner.  Cake is just all carbs.”

J:Oh.(I was thinking that my husband was clearly no fun for not giving into the thought of having a pregnancy craving of cake for breakfast.  Why be so concerned with my pregnancy nutrition this late in the game?  Remember how much macaroni and cheese, grilled cheese sandwiches, and Taco Bell I’ve consumed?  But no, he’s suddenly worried about having a small (ok, large) slice of cake? Really?!)

T:Maybe it’s a protein cake?

J:Yes, yes it is.  I knew I loved you for a reason.

Yum, strawberry cake and icing with coffee for breakfast.  When else could I ever get away with that?!

PS – The cake that I actually ate looked about a million times better than this picture, by the way.

Seriously, about six weeks ago, my husband asked what I wanted for breakfast. He meant did I want oatmeal or did I want fruit and cereal, but all I could come up with was DONUTS. Which neither of us really eat, so we didn't have in the house.

But that's what I wanted. Donuts. Donuts and a chocolate shake.

I should really give my husband more blowjobs for fetching that for me. Poor guy trying to satisfy his humongous pregnant wife lol. This is the upside of pregnancy: cake or donuts for breakfast periodically isn't really THAT weird, right? =)

Peta - Sorry to hear that you can't have any cake. And don't you worry, I ate enough for you, me, and about 10 others. Oops. I hope the scale at the dr's office on Wed. is kind to me.

Shari - You made me laugh! Happy, Happy Birthday too!! I hope it was a fabulous day for you! I'm totally with you on the cheesecake. Cheesecake is cheese which has protein, so basically you owe it to yourself to eat the cheesecake. Yum. Hope you enjoyed your day!

HDL - I've not seen that episode, but it sounds really funny! Thanks for sharing and we both did enjoy the cake!

Leanna - Very lame. I was cracking up! Chicken & veggies, while healthy for you, just doesn't sound good to me at all. I like your way of thinking a lot more:) Tell that husband of yours to shut his mouth. If you want pb&j, that's what you are eating dammit! Ha ha.

That cake sounds AMAZING!

(Just so you know, you're not alone in the husband trying to make you eat lame things instead of delicious things. I got a talking-to for wanting a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with cheddar and sour cream chips for dinner. Instead, I had something stupid like vegetables and chicken. Lame.)

Have you ever seen that Bill Cosby routine where his wife wakes him up early and tells him to "go downstairs and cook breakfast for your children"? Instead of cereal or pancakes, the kids request chocolate cake for breakfast. Bill rationalizes that cake contains flour and eggs and therefore makes a good breakfast. And just to round off the nutrition, he gives them grapefruit juice to drink. The wife, of course, is not pleased. Anyway, the moral of the story is that cake is part of a complete breakfast, so have at it. (I bet little Tarzan enjoyed it, too :-) )

lol, I want cake. Today is after all my birthday. It is 4:19 AM and I want cake for my breakfast too. But damn...I am gestational diabetic so I guess no cake...maybe cheesecake since it is mostly cheese? I can try to fool myself with that one at least.

Hope you enjoyed it!

MMM..... Cake Yummy

I wish I could eat cake right now
but because of these silly gallstones i can only eat bland food

not happy :(

Eat all the cake you want Jane and have an extra piece for me :)
