Forbidden Fruit

I have fallen in love with the forbidden fruit!

I had always passed over the Cutie Tangerines at the grocery store opting instead for the full size oranges. My reasoning was if I was going to peel it I wanted there to be more substance. However, this past weekend I discovered the Cuties at my friend Rachel's house and before I knew it I had peeled and eaten 3 without coming up for air. My will power was absent that day. I soon found out that 3 Cuties mixed with 2 glasses of OJ equaled a roller coaster for my tummy.

Next day, I am grocery shopping and I decide that I must have some. They are sold in a box of about 20. I give Chad a taste of the forbidden fruit and he was immediately in love. I try eating 3 again thinking maybe it was the OJ that sent me over the edge but I was wrong...roller coaster tummy. Nonetheless, I am addicted to the sweet taste of these little fruit and I will keep eating until I find my maximum.

Sure, you might be thinking...how about you just eat one, Jana. But trust me, you can't eat just one. I have put a 2 limit per sitting maximum on myself and I have asked Chad to help reinforce. I highly recommend that you purchase some and taste for yourself.

By the way, my baby is larger than a Cutie now. I am not sure what fruit it compares to but last week it was a peach. We added a Poll on the sidebar of the blog where you can vote whether you think it is a boy or girl. We are expecting to find out in our February 2nd visit. Here are some hints: I was craving sweets early on; My skin is breaking out; The heartbeat is on the high side of the range. Now, I actually don't believe any of the wives tale predictions but maybe you do.
