New found pleasures

I can't say that I've ever really liked jelly beans. I remember when I was a kid the jelly beans my mom put in my easter basket. They weren't very good and I never ate them. They usually ended up in the trash.

But these days, as an adult, I've discovered I really really like Jelly Belly jelly beans. They have so many interesting flavors. I had an espresso one yesterday and was like WOW! They really captured the flavor. I can get them in bulk from Cash Wise and they are like little bursts of wonderful sweetness. I do need to pace myself though. When I first started eating them I would just eat one at a time a savor it.

But, since I realized that I really like them I've found myself mindlessly mowing them down. Like yesterday, I ate more than half my bag.

I think I may have reverted to my candy stashing ways. When I was in grad school I would stash all kinds of candy in my drawer. I didn't realize I was eating so much sugar until I started keeping a food journal. That's when I realized that I was popping candy all day. Well I just need to be aware of it right?
