Pregnancy Cravings and Grain-free Granola

Can we talk about cravings for a moment? For the most part, I don’t get cravings too often, but every once in a while, I get one. Badly. Something about those hormones, amiright? Let’s face it, at 34 weeks pregnant, I’ve seen my fair share of pregnancy cravings. It’s often said that if you are…
