NOTHING IS AS SWEET AS YOU DIY CANDY BOX

I’ve been wanting to make one of these for years!  I saw something similar at a candy store in NYC eons ago & it made made heart flutter with candy delight.

I don’t know what took me so long, this is beyond simple to make – and the best part… you can put any kind of candy you, or your loves want!!!  I kinda’ went with a warm color theme (oranges, reds, pinks, yellows, & some pops of purple) – cause I’m visually inspired that way ;)





LET’S MAKE IT HAPPEN!

All you’ll need is…

 

A small little craft box, like this, and lots and lots of beautiful candy!!!

It was a hard decision to decide what to put in this, so I went with candy items that screamed “hearts” and candies that were visually appealing together, in a color story.  I ultimately went with these:

  • Sour Sweet Hearts
  • Mini M&M’s
  • Sweetarts Gummy Hearts
  • Sixlets Chocolate Candies
  • Brach’s Valen tiny’s mini Double Layer Valentines Hearts

Next, I wrapped some thin yellow grosgrain ribbon around the box and secured it with scotch tape.

Finally, I printed out my little label (find yours here) and adhered it with double stick tape.

Voilà – you’ve done it!

Speaking of yummy breakfast. Let’s forget the Speaking of yummy breakfast. 

Let’s forget the kiddos & their fruit platter for a moment shall we 😉

This is my EVERYDAY breakfast - my strawberry chocolate protein shake! 

🍓🍫After working on several protein shake concoctions for the past year… trying to find the best tasting/best macro ratio/least calorie one for me - this is it. I have this every morning after my workout… literally every morning. I will also make it with the Afterburn vanilla plant based (the whey based one is too much for my stomach) protein powder too, but I prefer the chocolate. 

(swipe for ingredients/macro breakdown)

Now, protein shakes… yeah I know, ewwww, right?! Noooooo!  Guys, before I started at Burn, almost a year ago, the last protein shake I had was over 20 years ago (when I was fitness crazed twenty something) - I HATED protein shakes.  They were sooooo gross that I used to hold my nose to drink them quickly… they were nasty. #nojoke #iheldmynose

Friends, protein powder has come a looooonnnnng way in 20 years!  Now I don’t know about other protein powders out there, I looked around a little, but I couldn’t find anything comparable to the calorie/macro ratio that Afterburn has.  #notanad #myhonesttogoodnessopinion
Kiddos breakfast today. 🤗 I love doing little Kiddos breakfast today. 🤗

I love doing little boards like this for the kids meals - you get the most bang for your buck. Plus, it looks more fancy & complicated than it really is - it’s really just fruit placed on a plate with yogurt & waffles. 

They each get their own board. #becausesiblings #noexplanationneeded 

I only got a pic of one plate because T started devouring it before I could snap a pic 😆

Their boards today have:
🍓🫐 🍌
strawberries
raspberries 
blueberries 
bananas
satsuma mandarins
clementines
blackberries
blood oranges
yogurt
blueberry waffles 

I give them a fork and a spoon - the yogurt can be used for dipping or just eaten as yogurt.
The depth & complexity of a middle schooler. 🧐🤔💭

Going from goofy monikers, chatting about Bieber, disagreeing with friends over who liked pale mint green first, spending forever with her cousins picking out lipstick…. ➡️➡️➡️ to spending HER Christmas money at Barnes & Noble last night on these two books: Like The Willow Tree/Lowry - about the 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic & The Bridge Home/Venkatraman - about homeless children and poverty in India 🤯 📖📚👩🏼‍🏫
