What are you craving?
this clean eating cleanse has me ravenous today. I started it (coincidentally) right after I discovered how to poach an egg and developed an obsession for a poached egg on top of english muffin halves with ham, tomato, and avocado. It sounds SO good right now!
But I can't eat it for 7 more days 
It also doesn't help that I've had to run to the post office twice this week, which is right next to Jimmy Johns.
What are you craving?

Re: What are you craving?
i REALLY want a brownie.
I bought these stupid diet brownies and they taste like cardboard rolled in some cocoa powder with some sawdust sprinkled on top.
*shakes head*
never trust a "diet brownie"

A large, crisp on the outside, slightly softer on the inside chocolate chip cookie.
I just finished last weeks episode of Grimm and the cookie was poisoned, but still looked perfect..
Stand up for something you believe in.
OMG was what happened to the officer after he ate it not totally gnarly?
Those cookies were enormous. Maybe that's why I want the cookie to be as big as my face....
I'm glad someone knew WTF I was talking about..after I posted it, it occurred to me that it's possible no one actually watches that show.
It was gross. And I didn't understand what he took out of his couch cushion to eat at the end..was it cake? How do you keep cake in a couch cushion? Or was it supposed to BE the cushion? (Yes, the rest of the premise I can totally buy but THIS is where I draw the line apparently?)
The cookies were huge. And looked crispy. I want. Soft chocolate chip cookies are overrated :op

I think it was actually couch cushion that he was eating. Like that crazy lady on My Strange Addiction that eats couch cushions. But what I couldn't figure out is, has he always been a cushion eater? or was it the potion that made him want to eat the cushion?
P.S. I love Grimm and will happily discuss it with you any time.
Ohhhhh..weird. I don't know..maybe the potion made him eat the cushion. Although he is kind of strange just on his own. I wonder if it will come up again.
Re: My Strange Addiction lady - I don't watch it but how long do couch cushions last if you're nomming on them all the time? Doesn't the furniture guy start to wonder where they go? Aren't they concerned about the dust mites/skin cells/other grossness?
I googled, and this is what it said about her:
"Thirty-year-old Adele has been eating couch cushions ever since she was 10 years old, when her parents divorced. When feelings of stress and anxiety come up, she literally stuffs them back down with couch cushion.
"It makes me sick to eat it, but I'm still eating it," says Adele, despite the health risks. "It really is out of control."
She's eaten over 200 pounds of couch cushion in her lifetime ? seven couches and two chairs, and even her mother's shoulder pads ? and has issues of blockage in her stomach and upper intestine."
Yummy, eh? Good talk for a thread about cravings.
Ick. I don't think I could watch that show. People eating soap and chalk and couch..just not ok. 200 pounds of couch seems like a lot. Maybe by the first 20 or so pounds of couch she should have realized something was awry and sought out therapy. I cannot figure out what makes people take the first bite..like..things are stressful, I think I'll eat my couch? How does that transition even work?
Ok, sorry. Cravings. I don't actually have any left. Even the cookie doesn't sound that great anymore.
Well, I mean there's a legit condition out there called Pica, in which people crave things that aren't food, so I would assume that she has that. Why she wouldn't seek help, I don't know. 20 years is a long time to eat couch without someone saying HEY! You need help. Stop eating couch.
I still want a cookie.
Sorry about that Nooner

HAHA, for real. I was reading this like... well now anything that's not a couch or soap...
I'm craving opposite of everyone else, all I've eaten today is chunks of brownie I've been cutting out of the batch I made last night. I need something real. Preferably something meaty and juicy, possibly dripping with sauce... and something crunchy on the side... hand cut fries sounded good. Maybe a crispy salad.
