Bet You Don’t Have This In YOUR Purse

My Life

FacebookTweetPin
28 Apr

Hello! How are you? I am the worst, but you already knew that. But today I’m the worst because of what’s in my purse…

 

i have that in my bag

First things first I woke up HUNGRY. Like actually hungry, that never happens. This might be the first time ever in my whole life. So I did what I always do when I wake up… ate something.

Manatee watch day 12: Nope.

I made a green smoothie for Ben’s fam today. They liked it, so I’m pretty excited about that! (Or at least they pretended like they liked it which makes me excited that at least they made the effort to fake it?)

Enjoyed outside. I actually like the FL heat when I’m not running, just relaxing.

I actually was responsible and worked today. I have a ton of blog emails to catch up on so I’m trying to chip away at it!

We had an epic dinner with tons of food and DESSERT and more. Love it.

I put together this Spinach in Artichoke dip in a bread bowl to be fancy. It worked and everyone was really impressed.

My Purse Is Embarrassing…

 

Literally as I was writing this post I went into my purse to get some gum and found this piece of bread from earlier. Ha!

And I was like, “Oh! I forgot I had this piece of bread!” (proceeds to eat it) (Ben looks at me disappointed.)

that time I found bread in my purse (600x800) smore rations

Question: What is the most random thing in your purse or pockets?

    I know this is an older post, but I have to share what I found in my purse this morning. I reached in there for my lipstick and pulled out a chili pepper. Yup, and I had witnesses to my weirdness. Of course.

    First I like the way you add memes on your post. It’s something that makes reading blog a little bit fun. Second I also make sure that I have something to grab in my bag whenever I’m hungry. I usually have nuts or dried-fruits that I snack on. More organic and wholesome food and less on those junk foods like chips and soda. I like eating healthy now that I’ve realize how important it is.

    A couple of cotton swabs – I was packing for camp last week and realized I didn’t have any swabs at home so I got a couple from my work stash, tucked them in my purse and still forgot to bring them on the trip.

    Love the bread in your purse! With two kids, I have lots of weird things in my purse – toys, fruit snacks, honey packets (my son has a honey obsession), socks.

    I stopped carrying a purse for that exact reason. It got a bit excessive when I found a shoe at the bottom of it. A Shoe.. :/

    Nothing super weird and I have a very small purse. The weirdest stuff currently is: a spare GU gel, snake earrings, a USB flash drive, and a pocket breathalyzer (not that I need it all the time or anything, but had it with when we went to a friend’s party just to be safe).

      I’ve always wanted to try a breathalyzer! I mean, not from the cops but like randomly with a friend.

    BAHA I love how you had a random piece of bread in your purse. I’m such a carb-o-holic that seems like something that would happen to me. However right now you could expect to find random emergency Quest bars and enough pens for a whole office.

    With as heavy as my purse is right now, I was hoping to find something more random–other than typical purse-things and some straw wrappers, I have one lone yellow sock; my 2-year-old son figured out how to take off his shoes and socks by himself so he takes them off the second we get in the car. I probably picked up the sock from the car or something.

    i JUST cleaned out my purse, so there isn’t anything too random…. And I tend to be pretty on top of that sort of stuff, I clean it out often, that and my apartment and car. So boring.

    I always keep at least one Bed Bath & Beyond coupon in my purse juuuust in case I end up shopping there. I’d be so upset if I paid full price knowing that I have like 100 of those coupons at home!

    I also always carry a Tide to Go pen in my bag at all times because I am the messiest adult alive 😉

    I have some letters written to me by my best friend, from when we were fifteen! I found them in a box of junk at my parents’ house, and I think she’ll get a kick out of seeing them when we meet for dinner tonight.
    She talks A LOT about stalking this boy that she “loves” haha.

    I used to have a million different things in my purse. I guess right now it would be a highlighter? I actually stopped carrying a purse here in the city bc I was able to fit everything I need into my jacket pockets, but now that it is warming up I think I may have to break it out again.

    I actually have a pillow case in my purse right now….I meant to go find a paint color yesterday and I want a color that matches my sheets and the pillow case was the smallest choice of material to take with me. Unfortunately, I forgot to go get paint so the pillow case is still in there. oops. Sadly it isn’t the only weird thing in there but at least it has some company.

    All that Florida sunshine sounds amazing right now! If I go to the movies there is most definitely going to be popcorn in my purse afterwards, every time it happens ha.
