I’m so hungry. And so tired. And so nauseated by the smell of brassicas. You probably know what this means: I’m pregnant–eleven weeks along and waiting for the second-trimester energy of which I hear so many good things.
And so I haven’t been posting much, or thinking much about gardening. Get this: the pictures in seed catalogs make me nauseated. Is this my body’s way of making sure I don’t spend so much money on gardening that I can’t afford diapers and baby wipes?

Congratulations–by the way I love your blog. For me it was always the smell of frying onions. Soda crackers sometimes helps.

Thanks, Kristi and Mostlygardener! I’ve been eating a lot of whole-grain Wheat Thins–they taste better than plain Saltines and they don’t seem to bother me.

Fantastic! I just had to de-lurk to say so. Hope the nausea settles soon and that whatever the second trimester brings, you’ll enjoy them.

Thanks, Nicole! I hear the second trimester is much easier.
Thanks, Janice! The same to you–the second part at least. 🙂
