cravings. i'm always caught off guard by my random blows of intense cravings. they're not the sort of thing that ease their way into my thoughts, just one subtle hint after another. no, my cravings tend to come full force, beating me into submission.
people say your body craves what it needs most, as if it were in a state of deprivation that could only be relieved by satisfying said craving. to be honest, i don't exactly know how my desire for chocolate during Mother Flow's visits support this theory, but hell, i'll take what i can get.
this past week, i've been mad for eggs. scrambled, poached, fried - i want them all. when thinking about dinner, i imagine meals centered around the egg. how about braised lentils...with a fried egg! or what about a fritatta? mmm, i like the sound of slow-raosted tomatoes and farro accompanied by...a poached egg!
perhaps my body needs the protein. maybe a hint of cholesterol. Mother Flow just left the building, so maybe the egg craving has some reproductive significance. whatever it is, i am determined to make my body proud and eat. those. EGGS!
