THEME:This week it’s seriously going to be just fun. This week share your favourite candies. I know from being on the HSBA Post team that Sprittibee and Dawn love gummy-bears, and maybe Bunny too. Have fun with this… and you’re welcome to post a photo of YOU eating your favourite candy. Haha!
God’s Word is also like sweetness to our souls. His sweet love, forgiveness, comfort, peace, and more is what makes our lives seem a little more bearable when things get rough. Whenever you eat your sweet piece of goodness remember that God loves you and will always be there when life seems sour.
Share a scripture for this week as well. One that lifts you up when you’re feeling discouraged.
It is impossible for me to simply identify one favorite candy, so instead you are going to get many fine candies that I enjoy.
York Peppermint Patties
Spearmint Leaves
Licorice of any kind (i.e. Good and Plenty, black jelly beans)
Licorice Necco wafers
Sn*ckers Bars and K*t Kats
All other candies can't even compete with these. You might guess that my candy tastes have been heavily influenced by my father, who is of a VERY past generation. Ahh, generational differences.
Sometimes I feel like I am living in the wrong time in history. But that is material for another post, maybe coming up soon.
Sweet words of scripture when life puts a bad taste in my mouth are..
"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going." JOHN 14:1-4
I can just picture my dad up there in my Father's house enjoying all the Good and Plenty candy he wants.

What a great post! I got my sweet tooth from my dad, too. Snickers are his fave. I like the scripture you picked this week.
Yumm!
I just might have to change my favorite!

I love peppermint patties too!
I love patties and snickers and baby ruth! Truth be told, I just love nuts. I make a cake that tastes very much like peppermint patties, and I even call it peppermint patty cake. I think I posted about it a while back, it's a yellow cake (usually from a box) with chocolate frosting made with peppermint extract. If you want me to send you the recipe for the frosting, just let me know! This was a fun post, and happy weekend to you!
