Ode to Cherry Limeade

I went through this with my last pregnancy too and I'm not sure why. But oh-em-gee, I LOOOOOOVE cherry limeade more than anything else.

I find myself craving Sonic's Cherry Limeades all the time.

And I've had to purchase those little flavor tubes for water of cherry limeade.

And I made cherry limeade flavored punch for the baby shower on Saturday.

It is delicious. Something about the cherry and the lime together. Mmm. But I only love them during my last month or so of pregnancy apparently. The obsession faded shortly after Evie was born and has only recently resurfaced.

I can remember the day that I gave birth to Evie, of course the hospital wouldn't let me eat. All I could have was ice chips. Stupid ice chips. But all of my family staying with me could eat. And they did. They all went to Sonic for lunch and got burgers and cherry limeades and I swear to you I could SMELL the cherry limeade. I probably could've cut off my right hand for a cherry limeade that afternoon. Or at least a finger. Okay, the idea of cutting off a body part is kinda gross. But I really wanted one.

My husband, being the sweetie he is, dipped some of my ice chips in his cherry limeade and gave them to me. So I got some of the flavor. It made it more bearable. Sonic was closed by the time Evie finally made her appearance but Josh went out the next day and got me Sonic. Was the best drink I've ever had!
