I have found myself being very hungry these days! I am starting to wonder if my body thinks I am growing an army instead of just 1 baby! I made this soup last night for dinner. I actually doubled the darn thing and there was only 1 serving left for me to scarf down for my second breakfast/first lunch;) It is a perfect winter soup.

That sounds delicious! Too bad my husband isn't a fan of soups. I could seriously eat them for every meal. I'm so jealous your hungry all the time. I eat half a portion of what I would have eaten pre-pregnancy and I'm full for hours. Lame!! I wanna eat!!!
Congrats on #5! I'm hoping you are still coming to London's Run- but I"m sure getting pregnant has put a damper on the training schedule!
