Hungry?


My blog has been pretty boring lately, so I thought I'd share some of my favorite snacks / candy (both healthy and not-so-healthy).  

 - String Cheese: we buy the packages at Costco and I have to limit myself to one per day.
 - Bagels & Cream Cheese:  I buy the mini whole wheat bagels so I don't feel too bad.
 - Jolly Joes:  I can only find these at "All a Dollar" in Utah, so when we go, we stock up.
 - Ripe strawberries:  So yummy!  When they are in season, I make angel food cake and top it off with some berries and whip cream.
 - Grapes:  I like both green and purple.
 - Stoneridge Orchards Dried Peaches: TO DIE FOR!  I've been on a dried fruit kick lately and these are seriously amazing.  I got them in Chicago at Costco a couple months ago, but they don't get another shipment until the 21st.  I think I'll buy a few bags (warning, they're pretty expensive).
 - Orchard Select Peaches: they taste like gold ... delicious.  I buy the 4 pack at Costco.
 - Sour Patch Watermelon:  who doesn't like these?
 - Mike & Ike Jelly Beans:  in my opinion, these are the best Easter jelly beans.  I went on a serious hunt for them this year and I haven't found any in Chicago, but my mom found some for me at Albertson's in Utah and sent us a package in the mail.  Thanks, mom!
 - Swedish Fish:  I like basically any candy that's bad for your teeth.

Notice there's no chocolate.  I think I could live without it and be just fine.  Isn't that weird?  

What's your favorite snacks?

I love swedish Fish! No chocolate? That is strange. I am revoking your girl status. :)

licorice! I love all kinds, all flavors. Though pull 'n peels are sounding pretty good right now. I also love cheesecake and anything key lime flavor.
As for healthy snacks, I like all fruits and veggies.

I am obsessed with peaches although I haven't tried the dried ones. I always want to when I see them, but don't want to waste the money if they turn out to be nasty. thanks for the heads up and I will be there on or around the 22--new shipment!
