Don’t Tick Off Your Pregnant Wife
Cravings matter
Today’s random word is Unit; the twist is a designated first line.
Because drabbles are short, please consider staying on this page for at least 30 seconds. I’d love to know you were here. 💕
There was no ice cream in the freezer. How dare Lester eat the last scoop just when Angel’s pregnancy cravings peaked.
She had handled the swollen ankles with grace and endured the growing heartburn uncontested, but satisfying her dietary urges left no room for error. Angel's only demand was that there always be a tub of Rocky Road with added chopped almonds on hand.
The night she opened the freezer unit for a bowlful, her temper flared.

Disclaimer: This drabble is in jest. Anyone offended by this reference, I apologize, but as a mental health survivor, I celebrate being nuts.
