Cravings

Bar studying makes me hungry. And I'm out of snack-sized bags of honey mustard & onion pretzels. And almost out of roasted garlic hummus. And I haven't had popcorn chicken for a long time. Tragic.

The problem with always being so hungry is that I keep thinking about food. About what I'm craving, which changes by the minute. And it runs the gamut from sushi to omelettes, from turkey burgers to coconut macaroons, from macaroni & cheese to moo shu chicken, from chicken chalupas to onion rings, from peach sorbet to split pea soup, from arepas to my grandmother's dumplings, from lasagna to a Wendy's Wild Mountain Chicken sandwich, from tuna fish salad to Vietnamese spring rolls, from banana blossom salad to chocolate cake... okay, I really need to stop, because I'm going crazy. I want to get in the car and drive to the 24 hour Korean restaurant for bibimbop. Aghhhh.

So, instead, to try and make myself feel better, I look at pictures of food. Right. Like that's going to make it any better!



I could really go for some sushi right now. Yum. I can't figure out what to settle for instead. I guess a Jolly Rancher is going to have to do. Sad.

I seem to always be daydreaming about food, but I think it's gotten much worse with bar studying.

Right now, as I'm microwaving my Lean Cuisine for lunch, what I *really* want is tuna tartare. Sigh.

Of course, it doesn't help that I watch the Food Network for almost the entire day. Last night, instead of sleeping, I was mesmerized by the acrobatic part of the pizza challenge. And then started craving every type of pizza I could think of... but I can't get myself to change the channel!
