Cravings

Lately, I've been craving sweets.  And milk products.  Which can only mean one thing: menses is pending.

But luckily this month, my sweet tooth has been limited to sweet almond croissants from the San Francisco Street Bakery.  Usually it's the sweetest most processed thing I can get my hands on, which only leads to disaster (read: tantrums).  I need to make sure I get some every day.  It's the least I can do for my mental health.

The milk and potato craving, I've figured out, is actually a desire for calcium, something I need to ensure my uterus doesn't spasm out and chain me to the toilet.  It's pretty simple, but it's surprising how often I forget until it's too late.

Hopefully I'll do better this cycle.  So far so good, but you never know...
