I don't really crave a particular food item, but I do crave the chemically clean smells of detergent, clorox and recently Bounce dryer sheets. I don't use dryer sheets typically, opting for Downy for no other reason than habit. But recently, my friend Tara mentioned she craved the fresh scent of dryer sheets during her pregnancy. The mere suggestion was enough to sell me on the idea and as soon as I located a box of Bounce, I was on a hunt to find places to stash the sheets through out our house and car. So far I have sheets stuffed in our shoe basket, under couch cushions, discreetly taped on the wall behind curtains, in corners of every closet and drawer, in my purse, in the stroller, under bed sheets and pillow cases, and under the cover of Barkley's bed. The last effort I figured was great enough to share on the www.BounceEverywhere.com website that runs contests for new ways to use the dryer sheets. Visit this link and rate my story HIGH (100%) (you will need to look under the category "In the Home" for Sina in Dulles VA. Hopefully I can win whatever it is they are giving away. If you are at work, get your colleagues to vote as well.

Ha...Ha...that is so funny! I haven't started doing it again with this pregnancy, but with Caden it was so BAD! I was totally mortified when Scott kept catching me with my head in the dryer trying to get my fix.
Enjoy! I think it is better than food cravings, no calories attached to it. Unless you start trying to eat them, then we will have to get you some help.
I voted and I am sending good vibes your way! Free maid service! I can't think of a better baby gift. Did you read the mosquito repellent idea? I am so trying that when we live in the heart of mosquito land.
Yeah, I saw the repellent idea and think it is definately worth a shot. I want to test it out in UT before I risk malaria in Sri Lanka however.
that is a interesting calorie free craving :) You got my vote!
