Eats and candy drawer

Truly my soul finds rest in God; 
   my salvation comes from him. Psalm 62:1 (<— that is so true for me! Sometimes my mind just starts running but when I seek God he gives me rest.)

Onto some recent eats

This picture pretty much says one thing about me: I need a life. I saw this eggplant in the grocery store and I was like wow, that seriously looks like a nose! So I decided to give it eyes? I am a nerd.

Chicken & pear salad with blue cheese and grapes. (From Eat n’ Park)

Pumpkin raisin bread from Eat n’ Park

This is one of the many reasons I love my church! They send out “goodie boxes” to college students each semester 🙂 so comforting!

Lunch from Market District (I love when Jimmy takes me here!! Hi Jimmy!) He got a buffalo chicken wrap and I got some assorted veggies + tofu + mashed maple sweet potatoes and salmon……

The salmon had an apple jalapeno topping that was good… it tasted like root beer!

Vanilla cupcakes w/ chocolate frosting.

Taco night

Why yes, I enjoy spoonfuls of Nutella! YUUUUUUUUUM.

May I introduce you to my candy stash?!

Sometimes I get stressed at school so I like to eat candy. . . I keep my stash in my truck and grab a piece when needed in between classes.

Jolly Ranchers + caramels

In the winter months when I don’t fear the candy/treats melting I have been known to keep Rolos, Butterfingers, and granola bars in my lil stash!

That’s all I’ve got! I’m off to work on some homework or try hot yoga again (if my friend texts me back on whether or not she wants to go!!)

Do you have a candy stash?

  1. Love the eggplant! Love you! Love caramels!
    For some reason I just thought of cake. Do you make a cake for halloween? A pumpkin cake or something? I always love seeing your creative cake pictures! 🙂

  2. Love your candy stash! Sometimes I will bring lifesavers or worthers to work. Always have packs of gum though. I am sure the kids love that I chew gum even though they aren’t allowed to. Sometimes I slip and blow bubbles too, woops!!

  3. Haha love the candy stash! I always just keep gum and tea bags in my car 🙂 Hot water is usually free and I’m obsessed with gum. Might need to put some jolly ranchers in there….mmm watermelon.

  4. I have a cookie stash more than a candy stash. The only candy I like are dark chocolate reeses and sour patch kids =)

  5. In Italy we stayed in Alba, the city that is home to Nutella! I saw the driveway to the CEO’s home. I swear to you- the whole city smells like chocolate because of the factory there. It’s like heaven.

  6. Hahaha, LOVE the eggplant. Veggies that look like people are the best. I specifically look for human-shaped ginger when I need to buy it, and then I make it walk around the kitchen before cooking. Yeah, my roommates have taken to ignoring me when these things happen. Jolly Ranchers! I haven’t had one in ages. Now I want an armrest full of them…

  7. I loooove that eggplant!! That’s so funny! I think a candy stash is necessary. You never know when a craving will hit! Mine has lots of chocolate bars, pretzel m&m’s, and lollipops. I want to get some candy corn in there too!
