I’ve Got a Hankering For Edward Cullen

on March 23, 2009

I can’t believe that Twilight has been out on DVD since Saturday and I still haven’t bought it! I need to see Edward Cullen ASAP. Any other Twilighters out there?

Lunch was delish. I am RELISHING eating out of my own fridge again!

The *star* of the meal was a simple WW baguette with deli chicken, mustard, and spinach.

Plus, a juicy orange.

And two bread and butter pickles.

I cut my sweet tooth cravings off at the pass and snacked on two mini Reese’s eggs.

What’s your favorite holiday candy? I think I love Easter candy the most — especially JELLY BEANS! MMMM.

I have a huge weakness for Cadbury Creme Eggs during Easter.

I am definitely a chewy fruity candy girl rather than chocolate…My favorite are the Starburst jelly beans!
Shannon March 23, 2009, 9:13 am
Oh man i love Twilight! I didn’t think I would but I bought the book for so cheap at Walmart and fell in love. I finished the book on Friday, rented the movie on Saturday (liked the book better) and now I am reading New Moon. In LOVE. I could TOTALLY date a vampire. Have you read all the books?
VeggieGirl March 23, 2009, 9:15 am
Edward Cullen = hot.

**Favorite holiday candy = the Peeps are cute 🙂

Mmmm whole wheat baguette sounds amazing! I’m a sucker for the pastel colors of Easter candy. It’s just so pretty! And i swear egg-shaped reeces are better than regular ones! Have a great afternoon 🙂
Kelly March 23, 2009, 9:17 am
Oh yes, big Twilight fans over here. And I haven’t bought the video yet either! I think I’ll get it this evening and get my Edward fix. 🙂
Courtney (The Hungry Yogini) March 23, 2009, 9:18 am
Yummy sammie. I think I would have to go with Easter candy too. YUM!
Brandi March 23, 2009, 9:19 am
i still haven’t seen OR read Twiligh – I know! Soon, I hope.

I love easter candy the best, too. mainly for those mini cadbury eggs (the ones that are just chocolate). Yum.
Steph March 23, 2009, 9:20 am
jelly beans for me too!
Kristi March 23, 2009, 9:21 am
MMMM, Edward Cullen. I’d rather have him than any Easter candy. haha.
😉
Krista March 23, 2009, 9:22 am
I love the Easter bunnies with the rice crispies in them! I could seriously eat a whole rabbit in one sitting! 🙂
Allison R March 23, 2009, 9:23 am

Rose March 23, 2009, 9:29 am
Love the bright orange!

There’s something so delicious about peeps. Yet also so wrong. 🙂
EatRunLitigate March 23, 2009, 9:30 am
Loved the books, but hated hate hated the movie. I hope they do better with the next ones (because I’ll of course have to see them).
Ryan (Chase Daylight) March 23, 2009, 9:30 am
Ahhh. I haven’t bought it either yet! I’m still trying to decide if I want to open that can of worms again…it’s so addicting and you can’t get EC out of your head!
Carolina John March 23, 2009, 9:31 am
oh i’m a sucker for easter candy. something about that reece’s cup when shaped like an egg just makes it so much better!
aron March 23, 2009, 9:34 am
i havent bought it yet either and i NEED to!!! just didnt have time this weekend. hopefully this week 🙂
Bec March 23, 2009, 9:34 am
I need to buy it still too! I love cadbury mini eggs, I may or may not have been eating them since February! They are just that good 🙂
Mica March 23, 2009, 9:35 am
Mmm, what a yummy lunch!

I am not a huge fan of Twilight, especially the books. The movie was decently entertaining, though with oddly stilted dialogue.

I *do* love Easter Candy! Mmm…chocolate bunnies!

Hope you’re having a great Monday!
Sara March 23, 2009, 9:38 am
Who isn’t a Twilighter these days? I right up there with ya, I need to go buy the movie.

Lunch looks delish. My hubby and I love the Starburst Jellybeans. My favorites are the yellow and green, while he eats the rest!
balancemycake March 23, 2009, 9:42 am
My favorite Easter candy is exactly what you hold in your hand Caitlin…Reeses are my FAVORITE!!!

Michelle
just me March 23, 2009, 9:45 am
jelly beans?! ew, i think those are the worst! haha…along w/ the malt balls they have, yuck. I like the little chocolate crisp eggs…those are wonderful!
Mandy March 23, 2009, 9:59 am
I am ALL about the reese’s eggs!!!!!
Sarah (lovINmytummy) March 23, 2009, 10:12 am
I haven’t seen Twilight yet either…what is my problem?! Too much March Madness and other things going on right now.

I like Reeses anything…eggs…trees…hearts…so nice of them to shape their crack like holiday icons.
Susan March 23, 2009, 10:14 am
Ahh! I haven’t bought Twilight yet either! I haven’t had the time and I want to sit down and watch it sooo badly!

I love chocolate, but if we’re talking candy, I think suckers and lollipops are my favourite. Especially the tootsie pops I get around Halloween.
Anna March 23, 2009, 10:14 am
cadbury creme eggs!
Jennifer March 23, 2009, 10:22 am
Oh… Cadbury Creme Eggs. I LOVE those. And I just started reading Twilight! I can’t wait to see the movie 🙂
Haleigh March 23, 2009, 10:23 am
I have a weakness for Reese’s even when it’s not a holiday! And Edward Cullen is dark and mysterious and just so hot!! Awesome sandwich!
bb March 23, 2009, 10:29 am
Oh, I am a Twilighter. I prefer Jacob to Edward though…I am in the minority!
runningwithin March 23, 2009, 10:36 am
Oh I loved Twilight! I read all the books before I even heard about the movie and then was so excited for the movie.

My favorite holiday candy is definitely Easter Candy, cuz then I get lots of it and don’t have to choose! lol. Peeps, Cadbury creme eggs, and jelly beans are awesome!

By the way, I did a post on my blog that expanded on the topic of healthy eating in America. Thanks for addressing that issue earlier, I think it’s such an important topic to touch on.
PRT March 23, 2009, 10:38 am
Lucky you! Where I live we don’t have the movie till april.

I’m totally hookes up in Twilight!
Lynne March 23, 2009, 10:42 am
I love easter candy, though it’s a tie between Cadbury Creme Eggs and Reeses Peanut Butter eggs.
I have yet to see Twilight-a trip to Blockbuster might be in orer.
Sarah W. March 23, 2009, 10:46 am
before I was vegan, my fav was easter candy!!

hello peeps & cadbury cream eggs!
katecooks March 23, 2009, 10:52 am
favorite easter candy would have to be cadbury eggs too — the CHOCOLATE ones tho! and peeps. and just the plain foil wrapped eggs. MMM easter candy. and the huge bunny so i can gnaw on the ears…too much?!
Runeatrepeat March 23, 2009, 10:59 am
As long as it’s chocolate (preferably dark) I’ll take it! I don’t need a holidy to celebrate with candy 🙂
S.I.T.C. March 23, 2009, 11:05 am
Where do you find Weight Watchers baguettes??! I love bread:)

you also have WW pancakes alot- are those pre-made or is it WW batter and you make the pancakes?

thanks!
Caitlin at Healthy Tipping Point March 23, 2009, 11:07 am
SITC: WW = whole wheat, not weight watchers (to me). sorry for the confusion!
Matt March 23, 2009, 11:25 am
M&M's for me!
dailydulcie March 23, 2009, 11:26 am
I love TWILIGHT!!

I love vday chocolate the most. Mmm I’m a sucker for dark chocolate!
Emily March 23, 2009, 11:26 am
I like Christmas candy the best. I love homemade toffee and peanut butter fudge!
runjen March 23, 2009, 11:45 am
Mine is definitely Cadbury Mini Eggs. I literally have NO control or willpower when they are around!
Caitlin March 23, 2009, 11:51 am
my weakness is mini Cadbury eggs! YUM-O!
Brittney March 23, 2009, 12:07 pm
Oh Twilight…I loved the books, but thought the movie was a little cheesy, though the guy that played Edward definitely made it worth watching 🙂

As for favorite Easter candy, can say anything involving chocolate? 🙂
Amy March 23, 2009, 12:22 pm
I’ve never had a Cadbury egg and never will. But it’s not Easter without Zitner’s Butter Krak Eggs –they’re a Philly thing and oh SO amazing!! http://www.citypaper.net/articles/2005-03-24/food.shtml
sloank March 23, 2009, 12:24 pm
m&m's by far… I love the seasonal colors!! And the new almond ones… yummm!
Shea March 23, 2009, 12:30 pm
Huge Twilight fan here!! I pre-ordered it off of Amazon.com but it still isn’t here!! I’ve half a mind to see if I can buy it at the PX.
K March 23, 2009, 12:37 pm
Oh my goodness – Reese’s Easter eggs are the death of me! Honestly, I don’t eat much candy but I can pack a few of those away!
Brooke March 23, 2009, 12:44 pm
Okay, so I’m definitely a twilight fan! I was at target at 8am to get the movie and haven’t gotten my Edward fix yet (but, can you ever get enough of him????). wow, he is hot! And I loved the books too…can’t wait for new moon to come out in November! The special features on the dvd are good, so I highly recommend getting them (what a calorie free guilty pleasure!)

My fave candy is candy corn! Now, it comes out at Easter, Christmas, Halloween, etc. I love it!
Anonymous March 23, 2009, 12:55 pm
Favorite holiday candy by far – Sweetart jelly beans … like crack!
2nd favorite holiday candy – candy corn!
bhealthier March 23, 2009, 1:00 pm

Anne P March 23, 2009, 1:05 pm
ahhh i love cadbury creme eggs. my mom snuck some in my suitcase last time i was home and i found them when i got back to prague, yay!! also, i love edward cullen. mmm
Elina March 23, 2009, 1:10 pm
Lunch does look delish 🙂
My favorite used to be the double chocolate cadbury creme eggs but I just tried the cadbury mini eggs for the first time yesterday at my sister in law’s and I’m in love. Totally sugary milk chocolate but so addictive!
Your favorite is not so bad at all. I wish I craved low calorie candy!! 😀
Elina March 23, 2009, 1:16 pm
Oh I forgot to mention that I’m having a granola giveaway. Check it out if you have a minute – this stuff is good! 😀
Run Saraaah March 23, 2009, 1:35 pm
I love mini eggs! I haven’t had any yet this year…I’ll have to buy the smaller packages cause I couldn’t just have a few.
Melissa March 23, 2009, 1:56 pm
YAY! I need to buy Twilight yet but I did see it with a bunch of girlfriends on Saturday!!
Erin of Care to Eat March 23, 2009, 2:05 pm
I’m not a Twilighter, but I think I might get in on it this summer. 🙂
I love pickles too!
My fave candy is probably cream eggs! They’re so not vegan so I just have to watch Rob eat ’em! But Easter candy is THE BEST!
Mara @ What's For Dinner? March 23, 2009, 2:18 pm
TOTALLY a Twilighter!!! I haven’t bought the DVD yet either!! CANT believe it! I did watch Harry Potter 4 and saw Edward as Cedric Diggory… not the same though.

Cadbury caramel eggs, 100% my fave 🙂
Missy March 23, 2009, 2:24 pm
I love those chocolate eggs too! Yum now I want some!
Trojan March 23, 2009, 4:27 pm
Loved the book, hated the movie:( oh well.

Cadbury Eggs!!!!!
livelovelaugheatlearn March 23, 2009, 4:31 pm
Cadbury mini eggs and creme eggs are a huge weakness of mine!!! I love them!!!!

I’m pretty sure I’m the only girl who hasn’t read/ seen twilight!!
Lindsay March 23, 2009, 4:40 pm
I have a complete weakness for peanut butter eggs and regular cadbury creme eggs. They are absolutely delicious and I love there small size!! 🙂
I also bought Twilight at 12:01am on Saturday and have watched the movie three times since then!!
It is still awesome!!
* March 23, 2009, 5:38 pm
I love Cadbury Creme Eggs and mini-eggs. A couple years back I discovered the Reese’s candy coated peanut butter eggs, which are just like HUGE Reese’s Pieces.

However I’d give up all Easter candy for Edward Cullen! I love, love Twilight. The books were amazing but I did enjoy the movie too.
Thinspired March 23, 2009, 10:13 pm
I tried reading the book way back when and couldn't get into it…then my mom made me watch the movie when it came out and I am HOOKED on Edward! Definitely going to read the books now 🙂
Holiday candy…I love it when the M&M's come out in Easter pastels!
