J is for.....


Jelly Belly Jelly Beans!!!! The bestest JB's in the world, IMHO ;)


A close up view! Is your mouth watering yet?


The whole shebang! My favorite flavors are cinnamon, blueberry, cherry, bubble gum, caramel apple, cotton candy, cream soda pineapple, Dr. Pepper, French vanilla, green apple, juicy pear, kiwi, lemon and l. lime, orange juice and sherbert, raspberry, root beer, strawberry cheesecake, tangerine, tutti-frutti, watermelon, and the best in the world--toasted marrrrshhhmellloow, ahhhh! I detest licorice and popcorn...yuk!
Ok, now that I've made everyone hungry (that is if you like them ;). A bit of knitting...she what you can accomplish while waiting patiently (tapping foot!) for DD to get out of the movies 1 hr later than planned......hmmm

half of a Dulaan Zud hat! I am not going to make a "number commitment" I can't do that to myself right now...lets say..as many as possible, and with doubled bulky yarn and size 13 needles...the possibilities.........Hubby is doing much better....however.....as much as I stayed away, the creeping crud wants me....it's attacked my throat, is making me achy and a little feverish, I didn't even go to knit nite tonite...so you know I'm a little under the weather...but not enough to NOT knit KWIM ;) Off to the bottle of zicam to ward off evil germs! :)

Thanks for tempting me! Jelly Bellies are my favorite. We can't even have them in the house or else I would eat them all. I love the hat colors too.

I really need to get to the jelly belly factory -- it's near me! My favorites are Starburst Jelly Beans, though ....

Hope everyone is feeling better!!

You don't like the popcorn ones? How can that be?

My friend Betsy and I are the only people I know who actually like the Mango ones. Her husband once referred to them in saying they "taste like ass, and not in a good way."

Pooh on getting sick. Have some good tea with lots of honey and lemon! If you have a Korean grocery store anywhere nearby, you can get honey-citron tea that my hubby swears will kill a cold at 20 paces. Plus, it's yummy!

Those ARE the best jelly beans! Juicy Pear is my favorite.

mmmm, jelly beans!!! I really like the watermelon ones. Mmmm... it makes me want to buy a huge tub from Costco. :-)

Ohhh, I know these jelly bean all too well. I love the pineapple, popcorn, coconut, cafe latte, coffee, cinnamon and I am sure I am forgetting some. Hope you feel better soon. I am fighting a low fever and cold today myself.

I went to the Jelly Belly factory when I drove cross-country a few years ago! It was so fun to go on the tour. The best part is the unlimited free jelly bean samples at the end!

I think you will love Knitting Vintage Socks. I am a bit of a history buff so I find historical patterns intriguing. So much easier with someone else modernizing the instructions!

Those are pretty jelly beans. I don't like the taste of them, but I like the colors! I hope you're feeling better soon.

Delicious J!! Put me down with Trillian--I love the popcorn ones too. Hubby is the bigger fan of the JBellies and lets me have all the popcorn, chocolate, margarita, jalepeno and orange sherbet ones...mmmm!

I like your hat too--next to those jelly beans it has a very similar color! :-)

soapy said...

those have to be the best jelly beans in the world!

Those jelly beans open new perspective on you! Who would tell! Nice hat!
P.S. One of these days I will be in your shoes tapping my foot!

You may have jelly beans, but I have yummy homemade chocolate chip cookies. There's cookies with butterscotch chips, too.
