Just wanted to drop in and mention that I'm still here. I usually blog almost every day, but lately I just work and come home to sleep a lot, and my serious love of naps and an early bedtime are getting in the way of my blogging...Tonight we went out with the friends we had over for The Olympic Buffet. We met in the Old Market, the most charming corner of Omaha and ate at a great restaurant called the Twisted Fork (I think...). I had that one salad that layers tomatoes and mozzarella with a vinegar dressing. Oh, that's my favorite. So stinking good.
But stealing the show, and my heart, were these appetizers: fried pickles with a horseradish dipping sauce. I don't like horseradish, usually, but tonight turned me into a horseradish believer. In this pregnancy I am craving all things salt and vinegar. And honestly, I could do without anything sweet. The pros and cons of this is that my baby will probably not be at risk of diabetes, but it might come out very hypertensive...and dehydrated. The pickles were like a whole new world of perfection, and all four of us enjoyed them very much.
Plus, they reminded me a lot of the Minnesota State Fair. Which is only 126 days away!
