Tour Through Tuesday's Thoughts

oh my goodness... i wrote this blog a couple days ago and thought it got deleted on accident... i just found it.  and that makes me happy.


Two Things I love about Tuesdays:

Tacos & Temples

I had some one-on-one time with Heavenly Father tonight.  I love one-on-one time with Him.  The time is so peaceful and full of reassurance.  That is what I love about my relationship with Heavenly Father; He always reassures me.  He knows that sometimes I just need a little hug, love, push, and/ or kick and then I can keep going. He never fails me.  Maybe that is why I love this picture.

I love alliterations.  I miss my alliteration buddy.  This picture represents our friendship best I think.

If I wrote an alliterative message to my friend tonight it would be something like this:

Tonight the temple tossed thoughtful thinking toward testimony.  

Trust timing. Tell the truth. Teach togetherness.  

Tempting trouble transmits turmoil tumbling toward total tyranny. 

Things that Top this Tuesday: Temple, tasty Tacos, Thinking

Things that top Tomorrow: Texing? Talking? 

Tonight I am thankful for this Tuesday.  

It was a terrific Tuesday.

Firsts & Food

How have I gone my whole 30 years of life without eating a candied apple?

I guess I have thought they were too much work.  

I dont even like eating apples unless they are cut into slices.  Something about biting into a whole apple is unappealing to me. Despite my loudness, I do kind of have a little mouth so I feel like I dont get a proper bit. And when I do bite into one I get apple juice all over my face and then I feel sticky.  And also, it seems like when I eat a whole apple the likeliness of getting apple skin stuck in my teeth is greater than when I eat slices.

When I have seen candied apples in stores they look so pretty but I have never been tempted to eat one because #1 eating it off the tiny little stick seemed unappealing and #2 I thought that by biting into it all the goodness would fall off onto the ground and I would be left with a naked apple to eat whole.

One of my favorite treats though is slicing an apple and dipping it in caramel. Of course I double dip. So I know I love the combo of apple + caramel.  And I know I love candy and chocolate and peanuts. So in theory candied apples should be delicious and enjoyable.

What I had not considered was taking the candied apple off the stick, coring it, and then slicing it into manageable pieces of deliciousness.

Perhaps I would have gone my whole life without considering & trying this, however, a new friend (although it had been previously determined that I have ENOUGH friends) gave me that first experience.  He explained the process and then followed up with the candied apple and the necessary tools I would need to have a positive first experience.

Of course, my sweet tooth is most demanding first thing in the morning so for breakfast today I took this first opportunity.

Since I was alone, I documented the process. Since I was alone, I also got to eat the whole thing by myself and not share.

 My First Caramel Apple

 

The provided tool 

  

I guessed, but I am assuming I used the tool correctly.  This was also my first time using an apple corer.

 

CORED!

SLICED!

ENJOYED!!

The end.
