Midnight Snack HOSTED BY STYLED BY BELLE

When I think of the word “Midnight Snack”, two people come to my mind immediately: 1. Nigella Lawson – Celebrity cooking show host and woman of my own heart. If you are familiar with her show, at the end of each episode she sneaks out of bed in the middle of the night and goes to the fridge for a naughty little snack. I love seeing this and she always makes me giggle! 2. The second person is someone that ties in perfectly with the theme of this Blissfully Sweet E-Vent... a pregnant “mother to be”! Many woman experience so-called “cravings” throughout their pregnancy and can often be found sneaking (or “pounding” if it’s closer to the end of the 9 months) around the kitchen at all hours of the night trying to ease their craves! Cravings vary from woman to woman and can include virtually anything. From sweet to sour, or salty to spicy, there are so many stories of the foods woman munch away on, or send their partners to the shops for, in the middle of the night. I personally was partial to a bit of chocolate and the odd donut while I was pregnant, but also pined for lots of tropical fresh fruit. There are the weird and wacky combinations you often hear such as ice cream & pickles, or chocolate sauce on hot chips, as well as the even stranger stories of dirt and charcoal! I did say weird and wacky didn’t I!!
