An Ode to Food...

An Ode to Food
 
Food
While pregnant takes on a delightful new role
Food that normally hurts my Crohn's belly I find
Full of new dementions, exciting tastes and flavors!
Generally food can bring me to my kness, hurt my tummy and my pride...
long days of painful undulations within my belly, the crohn's life
 
But Now that I am again newly pregnant food it so intense,
no longer excrushating but delicously satisfying!
A nibble of this, a bit of that...helps the baby grow!
That's the best part!  Not only does food not hurt,
but food is needed by my little one, so food baby will get!
Grow little baby grow!!
 
Something Tart, cranberries, a lemon perhaps?
Fried ocra with mashed potatoes...
LOTS of fruit; strawberries, bannanas, plums,
peaches, blueberries, blackberries, rasberries...
So delicous!
 
Orange Juice, yogert, fruit rollups
(take my advice DO NOT try and make them at home!)
But nothing compares, nothing is even half as good...
as my husband's homemade, delightful, melts in your mouth...
EGGPLANT PARM!
 
Maybe baby and I will ask for some...tonight!
