There are  a lot of things I would love to eat. However, I must be extremely careful, so I just wish upon a star

I haven’t had homemade meat loaf in years either.  It sounds delicious!

Hate to say it, but mine was delicious.  My SO used to call it "gourmet meatloaf!"  Secret is plenty of water (or liquid broth) in the mix.  Just enough so it can still be formed. 

Meatballs should be made the same way.  Too many eggs will make them chewy and hard instead of "melt in your mouth."  And I always tossed them raw into the homemade sauce, never cooked them first.

I know cherry.  Me too, for different reasons.

I crave chocolate! I actually read an article today that said it helps your eyes. All those years of my Mom telling me to eat my carrots (yuck!) because they were good for my eye. I could have been eating chocolate bars instead! Who knew? 😀

I crave my Mom's beef stew every time I make it. I think, "if only I could have one more taste of it". I know she's probably giggling about that in Heaven, because she knew I'd never paid much attention when she tried to teach me how to cook!

@Tribesters-

craving chocolate is a good thing!

On the other hand, a few nights ago my little grandson was still hungry so my daughter said to give him some baby carrots. My other daughter and I were sitting on the couch and started eating some too along with him. Well, we were so hungry, they actually tasted pretty good!

Amazing! And I haven't ever really liked raw carrots before! I guess a lot of things can taste pretty good when I'm really hungry and there is nothing else to eat but carrots!

Yes, I think it is our body's way of telling us what it needs.
